Sweep Mode Operating Instructions 3-1
3 – Operating Instructions
3.1 Introduction
The PMM 7010 EMI Receiver needs to be driven by a PC through an USB or
RS232 serial connection.
The system is provided with a specifically developed software called PMM
Emission Suite, which installer utility is stored on the Software Media shipped
together with the instrument.
Please refer to the PMM Emission Suite Manual for any information and
instruction concerning the operation of the software.
The Sweep mode is used to operate the PMM 7010 as a powerful scanning
EMI receiver. To enter in this mode it’s enough to depress the Sweep soft key
on the main screen, and immediately the scan setup window pops up and
allows the operator to set the parameters for the scan. All the automatic
settings (RBW, frequency step, etc.) refer to the CISPR standard.
Operating Manual Changes
Instruments manufactured after the printing of the User’s manual may
have a serial number prefix not listed on the title page; this indicates
that instruments with different Serial Number prefix may be different
from those documented in the manual itself.
3.2 Operating Modes
Under the control of the PMM Emission Suite PC Software it is possible to use
the receiver in different modes of operation.
3.2.1 SWEEP MODE
The Sweep Mode is the most common way to perform measurements in the
EMI environment.
The Sweep mode is used to operate the PMM 7010 as a powerful scanning
EMI receiver. To enter in this mode it’s enough to depress the Sweep soft key
on the main screen, and immediately the scan setup window pops up and
allows the operator to set the parameters for the scan. All the automatic
settings (RBW, frequency step, etc.) refer to the CISPR standard.
In Sweep mode the Peak, QPeak, C-Rms, RMS, C-Avg, Avg detectors are
available.
All the relevant information are reported on the screen.
In this way the User can see which detector is in use and the relevant hold
time; if the function “Smart Detector” is activated and which one; if the input
attenuation is Automatic or Manual and the set attenuation and the Minimum
attenuation.
On the right it is possible to choose the Reference level. During the scan, in
the center above the graph the actual frequency measured is displayed and
continuously updated.
Below the graph the start and the stop frequency, and loaded limits, if any.
When the sweep has been executed, on the bottom of the screen the most
important sweep parameters are repeated.
