TT7000
Basic Setup and User Guide
TT7000 – Introduction to a Compact Multi-Purpose RF Instrument
The TT7000 combines a Microwave Frequency counter, Power Meter,
Signal Generator, and RF divider in one compact instrument. This
instrument can either be used as a stand-alone device, or operated from a
PC via USB. The Frequency Counter and Power meter cover the band from
100 to 7000MHz. The Signal Generator covers from 300 to 9600MHz.
The TT7000 is very simple to setup and begin to use. Stand-alone usage
only requires a standard 5 volt USB type-C cable. This can be powered
from a USB port on a PC, powered USB hub, wall charging adapter, or a
lithium-ion battery pack. No data connection is needed. Once the device is
powered, the TT7000 will display the firmware version and model number.
The TT7000 will then boot up into Meter-Counter Mode and begin
displaying the detected RF power level and the constant wave frequency.
