Description
Tums

intemnodu-
l&ion measurement.
Queries TOIR. TOIR contains the re-
sults of the third-order
intermdula-
tion measurement.
Stores the value of TOIR in the vari-
able

Turns off the third-order
interrnodu-
l&ion measurement.
Setting TO1 to 1 turns on the third-order intermodulation measurement. Setting TO1 to 0 turns
off the third-order intermodulation measurement. When the third-order intermodulation
measurement is turned on, the spectrum analyzer first determines that there are four signals
on the spectrum analyzer display; the four signals must be the two fundamental signals and
two distortion products. All of the signals must be greater than the peak excursion above
the threshold. If four valid signals could not be found for the third-order intermodulation
measurement, the value of TOIR is -100. If four valid signals could be found, the spectrum
analyzer does the following:
1. Finds the four highest on-screen signals. (If the four highest on-screen signals are
not the
two signals and two distortion products, the
TO1
measurement cannot be performed.)
2. Determines the spacing between the highest two signals. The highest two signals are tone A
and tone B.
3. Verifies that the third and fourth highest signals (distortion A and distortion B) fall above
and below tone A and tone B by the frequency difference between tone A and tone B.
