Operation
Using Correction Tables
The RSA6100A Series R eal-Time Spectrum Analyzers and RSA5100A Series Real-Time Signal Analyzers let you correct the
signal displays and measurement results to account for gains and losses in external equipment. You can specify a single
gain value or you can use an external loss table to adjust the gain/loss value based on frequency.
To specify external gain/loss corrections:
1. Press the Ampl button to display the
Amplitude control panel.
2. Select the External Gain/Loss Correction
tab.
3. To apply
a constant correction factor,
select the External Gain value check
box. Enter a value into the text entry box.
NOTE. Y
ou can enter either positive or
negative gain values. Positive values
represent a gain. Negative values represent
aloss
.
4. To use
a table that corrects for gain/loss
values depending on frequency, click a
check box under External Loss Tables.
You c
an enable all three external loss
tables at the same time. Thus, you could
use different external loss tables for an
ante
nna, a preamplifier, and for cabling.
5. To e
dit the contents of an external loss
table, click the Edit button for the table
youwanttoedit.
