R&S ESCI Configuration/Setup
1166.6004.12 4.237 E-3
Hardware Adjustment
Some of the R&S ESCI modules can be re-aligned. This re-alignment can become necessary after
calibration due to temperature drift or aging of components (see service manual instrument).
Caution:
The re-alignment should be carried out by qualified personnel since the changes
considerably influence the measurement accuracy of the instrument. This is the
reason why the softkeys REF FREQUENCY, CAL SIGNAL POWER and SAVE
CHANGES can only be accessed after entering a password.
