3. Push STORE.
4. Return NOISE FILTER to the desired setting. Notice that the vertical scale now
reads 500 m r /div.
NOTE. The millirho vertical scale will not be in calibration after arbitrarily
adjusting the pulse height.
The millirho scale is the reciprocal of the number of divisions high the pulse has
been set. For example, 1 pulse divided by 4 divisions equals 0.25 or 250 m r /div.
When testing cables other than 50 W , this procedure allows reflection measurements
in millirho.
1. Attach a short sample of the given cable (75 W in this example)to the instrument.
