Test Record
Results of the performance test may be tabulated on the Test Record provided
after the test procedures. It is recommended that you fill out the Test Record
and refer to it while doing the test. Since the test limits and setup information
are printed on the Test Record for easy reference, you can also use the record as
an abbreviated test procedure (if you are already familiar with the test
procedures). You can also use the test record as a permanent record and it may
be reproduced without written permission from Keysight Technologies.
Test Failure
If the Keysight 81610A/13A Return Loss module fails any performance test,
return the instrument to the nearest Keysight Technologies Sales/Service Office
for repair. The 81610CC Reference Cable may be recalibrated using the
procedure given in
"Calibrating the 81610CC Reference Cable" on page
72; a
repair is not possible.
Instrument Specification
Specifications are the performance characteristics of the instrument that are
certified. These specifications, listed in "Specifications" on page 49, are the
performance standards or limits against which the Keysight 81610A/13A
Return Loss module can be tested. "Specifications" on page 49 also lists some
supplemental characteristics of the Keysight 81610A/13A Return Loss module.
Supplemental characteristics should be considered as additional information.
Any changes in the specifications due to manufacturing changes, design, or
traceability to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), are
covered in a manual change supplement, or revised manual. Such specifications
supercede any that were previously published.
