Performance Verification Tests
Performance verification tests are tests designed to provide the highest level of
confidence that the instrument being tested conforms to published, factory-set
specifications. The tests are supplied in an automated test software package. The
automatic execution of the full set of performance tests will take between three and
four hours to complete. Performance tests are designed to test an instrument
operating within the operational temperature range defined by the instrument
specifications.
If the instrument is unable to pass any of the performance tests, adjustments or
further repairs are needed.
The following is a list of the performance verification tests:
• RF Preselector System Alignment
• Displayed Average Noise Level
• Conducted Band Absolute Amplitude Accuracy
• Radiated Band Absolute Amplitude Accuracy
• Spurious Responses
• Third Order Intercept
• Conducted Band VSWR
• Radiated Band VSWR
