Making Adjustments
16. Frequency Response of the 8592L/94L, 8593E/94E/95E/96E, and 8594Q
16. Frequency Response of the 8592L/94L,
8593E/94E/95E/96E, and 8594Q
This adjustment applies to:
8592L spectrum analyzers
8593E spectrum analyzers
8594E spectrum analyzers
8594L spectrum analyzers
8594Q QAM analyzer
8595E spectrum analyzers
8596E spectrum analyzers
Use the following table to determine which bands are measured and
adjusted for your analyzer.
The frequency response (flatness) of the analyzer is measured with
corrections off. The source amplitude is adjusted for a marker
amplitude reading which is dependent upon the harmonic number of
the band being measured. This is necessary since the source and power
meter combination does not have sufficient dynamic range to measure
the uncorrected frequency response.
The difference between the “target” marker amplitudes is taken into
account when calculating the uncorrected flatness. The flatness data is
then entered into the analyzer using the
SERVICE CAL functions. The
error corrections are stored in battery backed RAM on the A16
processor/video assembly.
