52. Key in 24.3 then press the SPCL key. Slowly fine tune the signal generator up and down until a
maximum level
is found. At that frequency key in 24.4 then press the SPCL key. (This establishes
an IF level reference.)
53. Slowly fine tune the signal generator down until the Modulation Analyzer displays -6.0 dB. Note
the signal generator’s frequency.
54. Slowly fine tune the signal generator up until the Modulation Analyzer again displays -6.0 dB.
Note the signal generator’s frequency. Subtract the &played frequency from the frequency of
step
53. The difference should be between the limits shown in the following table for the option
combination given.

55. Fine tune the signal generator for a reading of 0.0 dB. Step down the signal generator’s level in 10
dB steps as listed in the following table. At each step the Modulation Analyzer’s display should
be within the limits indicated
in the table.

56. Set the signal generator to 51.50 MHz CW at 0 dBm. Connect the signal generator’s output to
the rear-panel LO INPUT connector. Connect the sensor module’s input to CALIBRATION RF
POWER OUTPUT connector. (See Figure
3-11.)
57. On the Modulation Analyzer, key in 45.16 and press the SPCL key then key in 23.1 SPCL and
press the SPCL key. (This turns on the RF power calibrator and switches the LO to external.)
Key in
50 then press the MHz key. The display should read between 48 and 52 MHz.
