Test Setup
Procedure
1 Connect the equipment as shown in Figure 2-5.
2 Unplug the range calibrator's power cord. Due to a ground loop design
problem with the 11683A Option H01 range calibrator, it does not operate
properly unless ground loops are eliminated. The range calibrator continues to
operate with no power applied, and disconnecting the power cord eliminates
the problem.
