7.1 When to Run Performance Tests
The purpose of performance tests is preventative maintenance in order to detect and head off degraded performance before
it occurs. The performance tests that are required include a test after purchase, routine test, and performance test after
repairs.
The following items are tested during each of the above mentioned tests.
• Continuous frequency measurement
• Burst wave carrier frequency measurement
• Burst width measurement
Periodically carry out performance tests for preventative maintenance. The minimum recommended number of tests is one
or two a year.
Contact our service department if a performance test discovers that the unit is not performing according to its specifica-
tions.
