9.  Press Scale Type[F5] to set the frequency scale to 
logarithmic or linear. Logarithmic frequency 
scaling is often used for compliance testing. 
10. If any test fails, use the EMI M, EMI E or 
Voltage Probes functions to find the cause(s) of 
the test failure. Rectify the causes and then re-
test. 
Near Field Testing ~ EMI M Probe 
 
The EMI M Probe function can be used to 
narrow down sources of strong magnetic fields 
before making a radiated compliance test as 
this function allows you to simulate the 
radiated emissions from 3 or 10 meters when 
using any of the GW Instek EMI-M probes.   
Magnetic field sources are characterized by 
high current, low voltage sources, such as PCB 
traces with high current.  
The 3m and 10m simulated results are based on 
the probe factors of the GW Instek EMI M probe 
antennas, and as such can only be used with a GW 
Instek M probe.
