To adjust the KXK-3 OCXO unit, some preparations are required.
1. The NXR-800 with the KXK-3 OCXO unit must be warmed up at least 24 hours before the adjustment is made.
The environment temperature must be stable.
2. The frequency counter (or reference oscillator) must be warmed up as defi ned by the equipment manufacturer.
