Introduction and Specifications
Introduction
This manual provides performance test, calibration adjustment, and minor
troubleshooting and repair procedures necessary to verify and maintain the
performance of the 96000 Series RF Reference Source (the Product or the
Instrument).
Note
In many of the procedures in this manual, the Instrument is referred
to as the UUT (Unit Under Test). Performance test and calibration
adjustment procedures apply to the 96040A and 96270A models
unless otherwise noted.
The performance test is a series of tests based on the published 1-year
specifications for the Instrument. Fluke Calibration recommends the performance
test as an acceptance test when the Instrument is first received and later as a
calibration procedure to ensure that the Instrument meets its published
specifications. Fluke Calibration recommends a 1-year calibration cycle for the
Instrument.
Use calibration adjustments to correct out-of-tolerance parameters so they meet
published specifications. If the Instrument fails the performance test, it is an
indication that the Instrument requires calibration adjustment and/or repair. While
calibration adjustment can be accomplished without removal of the covers, repair
requires access to the interior of the Instrument. See Chapter 5, Maintenance for
internal access and repair information.
Note
The Instrument top cover is removable for air filter cleaning access
without the need to break calibration integrity seals. A calibration
integrity seal is located on the internal top shield and is revealed
once the outer-top cover is removed (see Chapter 5, Maintenance
for details). Additional calibration integrity seals are located on the
rear panel over the lower outer cover and over the calibration enable
switch. Fluke Calibration recommends that users apply calibration
integrity seals in the same three locations.
