GENERAL INFORMATION
RF INPUT
0
Connect cable from CAL OUTPUT signal to RF input to perform initial calibration.
Excessive signal input power will damage the input attenuator and the input mixer. The
spectrum analyzer total RF power must not exceed + 30 dBm (1 watt).
DC Precaution: The HP 8566B cannot accept DC voltages in 0 dB ATTEN. With 10
damage. A blocking capacitor is recommended at the input when DC is present with an
RF signal.
Manual Calibration Procedure
After instrument has stabilized, press m
2.
Press @ 8; this recalls the following stored control settings from the analyzer's internal memory:
Center Frequency = 100 MHz
Frequency Span = 2 MHz
Reference Level = - 7 dBm
Res BW = 1 MHz
Scale = 1 dB/Div
Marker = Normal
3.
Adjust AMPTD CAL for a marker amplitude of - 10 dBm. *
4.
Press [1Ic1LLl 9; this recalls the following:
Center Frequency = 100 MHz
Frequency Span = 0 Hz
Reference Level = - 7 dBm
Res BW = 30 Hz
Scale = 1 dB/Div
Sweep Time = 10 Sec.
If connection cable has significant loss, it must be accounted for separately.
