6. Set the Vertical Scale to 5 dB/.
7. Set the attenuators for 0 dB and adjust the signal generator amplitude for full
screen display.
8. Increase the attenuation 5 dB and check that the Marker readout changes
5dB±1dB.
9. Continue to increase the attenuation in 5 dB steps to a total attenuation of
40 dB while checking the Marker readout for a change of 5 dB ±1dB.
Check that the Marker readout change for each 10 dB change does not
exceed ±1 dB or that the cumulative error does not exceed ±2 dB over the
40 dB range.
10. Set the Vertical Scale to 1 dB/.
11. Set the attenuators for 0 dB and adjust the signal generator amplitude for full
screen display.
12. Increase the attenuation 1 dB and check that the Marker readout changes
1dB±1dB.
13. Continue to increase the attenuation in 1 dB steps to a total attenuation of
8 dB while checking the Marker readout for a change of 1 dB ±1 dB at each
step. The specification is ±1 dB per step over the 8 dB range.
14. Set the Resolution Bandwidth and Span/Div as indicated in Table 4--6 and
repeat steps 3 through 13 for each Resolution Bandwidth filter.

15. After completing the above procedure, disconnect the signal generator from
the RF INPUT.
