    							acquired, 
    the Freq: 
    field in 
    the  RF 
    Control
    zone  indicates  metering 
    and its 
    counterpart  in
    the  meter  zone 
    displays  the 
    channel  on which
    the  canier  was 
    detected.  Also 
    displayed  in 
    the
    meter  zone 
    are the preset 
    number  of the channel,
    the  received  power 
    level and the 
    modulation
    level  of the  received  signal.
    To  activate  the Preset 
    Scan function, 
    depress the
    Preset  Scan  softkey. This  key  not 
    only  begins
    the  preset 
    scanning  but also 
    seryes  as  a contin-
    ue  key 
    to temporarily  skip past 
    a channel  with
    heavy  radio traffic.  When 
    the  analyzer  is locked
    on  a preset 
    frequency  and you 
    wish  to 
    continue
    scanning,  although the 
    signal  is 
    still  present,
    press  the Preset 
    Scan softkey  again. 
    This  contin-
    ues  the scanning  with 
    the next  preset 
    frequency
    in  the  memory  table.  Pressing the 
    Preset 
    Scan
    softkey  only skips 
    over a frequency  once;  if
    radio  traffic  is 
    still  present 
    on  that frequency 
    the
    next  time  that it 
    is 
    scanned,  the 
    analyzer  will
    stop  and  dwell 
    once again.
    The  number  of preset 
    frequencies  to 
    be  scanned
    can  be limited 
    by using  the 
    Low  Preset  and
    High  Preset  fields 
    in the  meter 
    zone. Entries  in
    these  fields  will 
    cause  the analyzer  to  only scan
    from  the low  preset 
    number  to the  high  preset
    number.  By 
    carefully  ananging  the preset 
    fre-
    quencies  in the  RF  memory  into 
    related  groups,
    you  can make 
    maximum  use of the 
    Low  Preset
    and  High  Preset  scan  limiters. For 
    example,  a
    particularly  busy preset 
    frequency  which is
    causing  the  analyzer  to 
    stop  scanning  and dwell
    for  long  periods 
    of time  can 
    be removed  from
    the  scan  list 
    by moving  it 
    within  the RF  memory
    table  to a location  just 
    above  or 
    below  the preset
    numbers  being scanned.
    It  is  recommended  that 
    frequencies  in 
    the  RF
    memory  table 
    be grouped 
    according  to 
    their
    modulation  type 
    and bandwidth  because these
    parameters  must be manually  changed in 
    the
    analyzers  RF 
    Control  zone. If 
    an  AM 
    frequency
    (e.g.  aircraft  band) is 
    intermixed  with FM fre- quencies 
    (e.g. 
    public 
    service  band)  in 
    the  scan
    list  and  the analyzer  is 
    set  to FM 
    mode,  radio
    traffic  on the  AM 
    frequency 
    will cause  the
    scanner  to lock, 
    but the received 
    audio will be
    unintelligible  and 
    the modulation  measurement
    will  be meaningless.
    Because  breaking  the receiver 
    squelch causes the
    analyzer  to stop  scanning,  it 
    is  important  to
    properly  adjust the squelch  control.  If 
    the
    squelch  is 
    adjusted  too loosely  (counterclock-
    wise  rotation 
    of the  squelch  knob), 
    undesired
    noise  signals  will 
    break  the receiver 
    squelch and
    the  scanning  function 
    will not operate  properly.
    If  the  squelch  is adjusted  too tightly  (clockwise
    rotation  of the squelch  control knob), it 
    is  possi-
    ble  that  desired signals  will 
    not 
    be strong
    enough  to 
    break  the squelch  and  the analyzer
    will  not 
    stop  and dwell on  the 
    channel.  To
    adjust  the 
    squelch  control for proper 
    scanning
    operation,  turn 
    the  squelch  control fully 
    counter-
    clockwise  and  activate  the  Preset 
    Scan mode.
    The  analyzer  will 
    not 
    scan  bscause  it will lock
    on  the  first  frequency 
    due to the  squelch  being
    open.  Now 
    slowly  rotate 
    the squelch  control
    clockwise,  just 
    until  the squelch  light goes 
    out,
    the  noise 
    in the 
    speaker  stops 
    and the 
    unit
    begins  to 
    scan.  If 
    an  actual  signal is 
    received
    while  the squelch  is 
    being  adjusted,  wait until  it
    ends  before  resuming 
    the  adjustment.  For  maxi-
    mum  sensitivity,  the 
    squelch  level 
    should  be
    adjusted  as loose 
    as possible 
    (cbunterclockwise)
    without  being broken  by receiver  noise.
    To  halt  the scanning  operation  at 
    any  time,  press
    the  RF Display 
    softkey.  This 
    stops  the 
    scanning
    and  leaves 
    the analyzer  locked 
    on the  last
    scanned  frequency  prior 
    to the  key  press.
    Note:  When the 
    unit  is in  the  Preset 
    Scan mode,
    the  response 
    time to key  presses 
    will be
    somewhat  slower than  normal.  For 
    best
    results,  it is  recommended  that  you 
    do not
    leave  Preset 
    Scan active  in 
    the  Display
    zone  when 
    it is not  being used.

    							3-7.I.3 
    AC/DC VOLTMETER
    The  Analyzer  provides 
    a general 
    purpose
    AC/DC  digital voltmeter  (figure 
    3-12).  The
    voltmeter  input 
    is the  same  front panel 
    BNC
    port  that also 
    serves  as 
    the  input 
    for the
    SINAD/DIST  meter, 
    the VERT 
    oscilloscope
    input,  and the period 
    COUNTER  IN.
    Move  the  cursor  to 
    the  Range: 
    field. Select
    the  voltage  range (1V, 
    10V, or 100V 
    DC) by
    pressing  the  applicable  softkey. 
    Maximum  AC
    range  is 
    70  VAC.  If 
    ttre  optional 
    battery pack 
    is
    installed,  an 
    additional  selection is 
    available  to
    read  the  battery voltage.
    CAUTION
    The  mnximum  analyzer 
    input voltage  is
    100  volts  peak.
    The  data  portion 
    of this 
    screen  will 
    show  a hori-
    zontally  oriented  bar graph 
    for an analog  indica-
    tion  along  with a 
    digital  readout 
    of the  measured
    voltage  (up 
    to 4 
    digits  resolution).
    In  the  AC  mode,  the measured 
    input is 
    also
    displayed  in 
    dBm,  referenced 
    to lmW 
    into 600
    ohms.
    3-7.1.4  INT 
    DIST/EXT  DIST 
    Meter
    The  internal 
    and external  distortion  meter 
    are
    selectable  via 
    softkeys  located 
    within the rMe-
    ter:  field  in 
    the  Display 
    zone. The 
    display
    consists  of a 
    digital  readout 
    and bar graph.
    Distortion  is 
    used  to measure 
    the  audio  quality
    of  the  transmitter  and receiver  modulation.  The
    distortion  meter 
    is 
    selectable  via 
    softkey  be-
    tween  internal  (coupled 
    from the monitor  de-
    modulated  signal) and external  (through 
    the
    DIST  input  on the  front  panel). The  distortion 
    meter 
    operates  only 
    at the  fixed
    frequency  of I 
    KHz.
    3-7.1.5  SINAD Meter
    The  SINAD  meter 
    is 
    selected  within 
    the
    Meter:  field in 
    the  Display  zone. Display 
    con-
    sists  of a digital  readout 
    and bar graph. 
    SINAD
    is  used  in 
    making  receiver  sensitivity  measure-
    ments  per 
    EIA  specifications  using 
    a fixed 
    1
    kHz  modulation  frequency.
    Internal  coupling  for 
    SINAD  is 
    not  provided;
    input  is  always via 
    the extemal  BNC port 
    on the
    front  panel.
    3-7.1.6  Counter  and Decoding  Functions
    The  following  are 
    all accessed  via 
    softkey
    through  the Meter: 
    field within  the Display
    zone.  Their inputs 
    are all normally  internally
    coupled  to 
    the  monitor  demodulated  signal for
    either  direct 
    or off-the-air 
    testing. If 
    use  of
    these  functions  is 
    needed  for 
    an externally
    applied  signal, the 
    Special  Functions 
    screen,
    under  SYSTEM  FUNCTIONS,  provides 
    ameans
    of  switching  the input 
    of the  Counter/decoder
    from  Internal 
    to External.
    These  screens  contain  a Sensitivity:  field
    where  MIN 
    or MAX 
    may  be  selected  via 
    soft-
    key.  This provides 
    a means 
    to desensitize  the
    counter/decoder  circuits, 
    if needed 
    to properly
    measure  very high level  signals. 
    Under normal
    operation,  this field 
    should  be 
    set  to MAX.
    The  display  exhibits 
    a digital  frequency 
    and
    equivalent  PL 
    code  if 
    applicable.  Refer 
    to
    Appendix  B 
    for  valid  codes.

    a 
    fiilly
    digital  oscilloscope  (storage 
    scope), 
    -it inher-
    titty  lrot 
    some  characteristics  which 
    are
    dffirent  from the 
    real-time  analog 
    scopes
    \i*ttto,  to 
    most  users.  For 
    best  overall
    -results, 
    it is  recommended  that 
    the trigger
    Ievel  be 
    set  to 
    500  and 
    the triggering  be 
    set
    to  AUTO.
    The  Display  area 
    of 
    the  screen  will indicate
    rr,roouiniroN  scoPE 
    with 
    the input  signal
    displayed  in 
    a time-versus-frequency  graph 
    To
    change  triggering,  horizontal position 
    horiz-
    ontal  range, 
    vertical  position, 
    or 
    vertical  range
    use  the cursor  control  keys 
    to 
    highlight  the
    appropriate  cursor 
    fields 
    as 
    follows:
    Trigger Press  the AUTO,  NORMAL,  or 
    SINGLE
    SWEEP  softkey to 
    select  the 
    type  of triggering
    desired.  The 
    trigger  level 
    synchronizes  the
    horizontal  time 
    base to 
    the  vertical  input
    signal.
    In  AUTO  mode, 
    the 
    scope  will 
    trigger  contin-
    uously.  In 
    this  mode,  the 
    analyzer  will 
    always
    re-sweep  the 
    display  even 
    if 
    there  is 
    no  signal
    present.  The 
    rate will be about  1 
    per 
    second
    with  no 
    signal  present 
    and about  10 per 
    sec-
    ond  with 
    signal 
    Present.
    In  NORMAL  mode, 
    the 
    scope  will trigger
    when  the vertical  signal 
    exceeds  the 
    trigger
    leve1set.  In 
    NORMAL  mode 
    the analyzer  will
    re-sweep  at 
    a rate 
    of 10  per 
    second,  with 
    the
    last  screen  display  remaining  after 
    removal  of
    the  signal.
    In  SINGLE  SWEEP mode, 
    the 
    scoPe  will
    trigger  one time  for 
    each  softkey  press 
    subject to 
    the  trigger  level 
    setting  (triggering 
    always
    occurs  on 
    the  rising  portion 
    of the 
    applied
    waveform).  Messages 
    on 
    the  line  just 
    above
    the  softkeys  indicate 
    the 
    status  of 
    the  single
    sweep.  The 
    single  sweep  is 
    useful  in 
    measur-
    ing  one-time  events, 
    such 
    as 
    a 
    tone  burst  at
    the  beginning  of 
    a 
    transmission  Such 
    bursts
    may  be followed  by 
    other  modulation  which
    would  over-write  the 
    screen  if 
    measured  in 
    the
    NORMAL  trigger mode.
    Level Adjust  the 
    TUNING  knob 
    to 
    select  the 
    desired
    trigger  level. 
    The 
    trigger  level is 
    a relative
    level  setting  between  the 
    values  of 
    0 and 
    999
    (full  scale)  where 
    0 
    is  the  most  negative  and
    999  is

    OTHER  FUNCTIONS
    3-8.1  Audio  Monitor
    The  Analyzer  has 
    a 
    speaker  for 
    the  purpose 
    of
    audibly  monitoring 
    the 
    recovered  baseband
    signal  in 
    the  MONITOR  and 
    DUPLEX  modes
    and  the modulating  signal in 
    the 
    GENERATE
    mode.  Switching  between 
    the 
    two  is 
    automatic.
    Using  the 
    VOLUME  control, the 
    input  signal  to
    the  speaker  is 
    adjustable  to 
    a maximum  level 
    of
    0.5  watts  rms.
    The  speaker  is 
    also  used  for 
    audible  warnings,
    such  as RF 
    overtemperature.

    3-8.3  Calibration
    Calibration  of 
    the  Analyzer  is performed 
    by the
    following  steps.
    a.  Press 
    the CAL  key 
    to instruct  the processor
    to  perform 
    a self  calibration  on 
    the  system
    The  CAL  function  provides 
    a self calibra-
    tion  of the  units  RF generator 
    output level,
    the  monitor  input 
    level 
    and the modulation
    level.  All 
    other  parameters  are 
    not 
    subject
    to  this  self-calibration.
    This  assures  the 
    units  specification  ac-
    curacy  under 
    conditions  of 
    ambient  temper-
    ature  extremes  and 
    aging.  Re-calibration  is
    recommended  at 
    weekly  intervals  or 
    when
    the  re-calibrate  warning 
    appears on the
    screen.  Calibration  is 
    only  recommended
    after  the unit  has 
    fully  warmed 
    up to oper- ating 
    tgmperature  unless critical  measure-
    ments  are needed  immediately  upon turn-
    on. CAUTION
    Before  starting  self 
    calibration  be 
    sure
    that  the 50 ohm  load,  attached  bY
    chain  to 
    the 
    front  panel, 
    is connected
    to  the  GEN 
    OUT 
    Port.  This 
    Provides
    the  termination  which 
    is essential  to
    proper  calibration.  AIso 
    ensure  all
    connections  to 
    the  RF 
    I/O  and  ANT
    conne  ctors 
    are removed.
    Press  the 
    START  softkey 
    to 
    begin  the 
    cali-
    bration.  While the 
    calibration  is 
    active,  the
    message  calibrating 
    appears.
    When  the calibration  has 
    been  performed,
    the  message  complete 
    appears- Press 
    the
    return  softkey  or 
    a cursor  control  key 
    to
