OPERATOR'S CHECKS
The Operator's Checks verify that the 8756A is functioning
correctly. It does not thoroughly check all specifications to
their limits, but is an appropriate test £or daily instrument
verification, incoming inspection, or verification after repair
or replacement of digital circuits.

These three components are necessary to perform the
A, 8, and R Detector Input Checks. The Sweep
Oscillator is any RF or microwave source capable of
outputting at any frequency within the frequency
range of the 11664A Detector (10 MHz to 18 GHz) or
the 116648 Detector (10 MHz to 26.5 GHz), and also
capable of outputting a 0 to 10 volt sweep ramp and
positive z blanking. The Sweep Oscillator also must
be able to accept an external 27.8 kHz AM modulation
input. If an external AM input is not available, an
external modulator, such as the HP 116658 Modulator,
should be connected to the RF output of the Sweep
Oscillator. Modulator Drive is available from any of
3 8NC output connectors on the Rear Panel of the
8756A. (The HP 8350A/B Sweep Oscillator has internal
27.8 kHz square wave modulation of the RF output.)
The Microwave Test Device used should be kept
exclusively for these Operator's Checks, so that
future comparisons will be valid.
