RTSA (Real-time Spectrum Analyzer) Mode—Option 350
RTSA Mode Settings
— Enter a value using the numeric keypad, the arrows, or the rotary knob
(positive for gain; negative for loss). Values in increments less than 5 dB
must be typed using the numeric keypad. Then press Enter
ExtGain xx dB is shown at the top of the screen.
Attenuation Control
Both the RF Attenuation and Preamp functions control the power level into the
RTSA.
When too much power is present at the RF Input port, ADC Over Range
appears on the FieldFox screen. This does not necessarily mean that damage
has occurred, but that the measurement is probably compressed.
When high power levels are present at the RF Input port, internal attenuation
can be switched in to keep the FieldFox receiver from compressing. At
extremely high power levels, use external attenuation to protect the internal
circuitry from being damaged.
The displayed power level is automatically adjusted for RF Attenuation. As the
attenuation value changes, the displayed power level should NOT change.
How to set Attenuation
—Press Scale/Amptd.
—Then
RF Atten Man Auto
The FieldFox can be damaged with too much power. Refer to the FieldFox
Data Sheet for your model by referring to
