Improving Accuracy with Self-Calibration Routines
Performing
the
Tracking
Generator
Self-Calibration
Routine
(Option
011
only)
In order for the tracking generator to meet its specifications, allow the
cable TV analyzer to warm up for 30 minutes after being turned on before
attempting to make any calibrated measurements. Be sure to calibrate the
cable TV analyzer and the tracking generator only
after
the cable TV analyzer
has met operating temperature conditions.
NOTE
Since the tracking-generator self-calibration routine uses the absolute amplitude level of the cable TV
analyzer, the cable IV
analyrer
amplitude should be calibrated prior to using CAL
TRK
GEN
1. To calibrate the tracking generator, connect the tracking generator output
(RF OUT 75 0) to the cable TV analyzer INPUT 75 0 connector, using an
appropriate cable and adapters.
NOTE
A low-loss cable should be used for accurate calibration. Use the 75
fI
cable shipped with the cable
TV analyzer.
