+10 dB Range Flatness Verification
This procedure checks the high frequency ac amplitude flatness above
100 kHz on the +10 dB attenuator range.
1 Connect the power meter to measure the output amplitude of the
instrument as shown on page 63.
2 Set the power meter reference level to equal to the calculated
100kHz_10dB_offset value. This sets the power meter to directly read
the flatness error specification. 100kHz_10dB_offset is calculated on
the Amplitude and Flatness Verification Worksheet.
3 Set the instrument to each output described in the table below and
measure the output amplitude with the power meter. Press to set
the output impedance to 50Ω. Be sure the output is enabled.
4 Compare the measured output to the test limits shown in the table.
