Performance Verification
2715 Spectrum Analyzer Service Manual
4-5
Performance requirement is 7:1 or less for Bandwidths
≤1MHz.
1. Recall default power up settings by pressing UTIL 1 1.
2. Select the following settings on the Spectrum Analyzer:
FREQUENCY 100 MHz
REFERENCE LEVEL --30 dBm
SPAN/DIV 1 MHz
RESOLUTION BW 1 MHz
VID FLTR On
VERTICAL SCALE 10 dB/div
SWEEP AUTO
3. Enable the calibrator by pressing INPUT 9.
4. Enable MAX/MIN ACQUISITION MODE by pressing DSPL 4.
5. Press APPL 9 0 and enter --6 dBc. Press BKSP and 0 to activate bandwidth
mode (exits the menu).
6. The marker readout displays the bandwidth of the filter 6 dB down from
peak amplitude. Make a note of this value.
7. Check that the ratio of the 60 dB bandwidth to the 6 dB bandwidth is 7:1 or
less.
8. Using Table 4--2, verify that the --60 dBc readings for the other resolution
bandwidth filters are no more than 7X the --6 dBc reading.
9. Exit bandwidth mode by pressing MKR/∆/OFF.
