(2) Set the Modulation meter to monitor AM in a 50 Hz to 15 kHz bandwidth, Noise averaging
on. Press [HELP/SETUP], [Setup], [AF Filters], [Factory Preset], [Return], [Return],
[Return].
(3) Set the UUT to [Tx TEST], RF IN/OUT [SELECT] antenna input socket, [Mod Meter].
Press the [AM/FM] soft key to set the UUT to demodulate AM. From the power up default,
the instrument should already have an IF filter of 30 kHz and AF filter of 0.3 to 3.4 kHz
selected. Check that this is the case and select if necessary.
(4) Tune the UUT to 500 kHz by pressing [Return], [Tx Freq] 500 kHz. Set the RF signal
generator to provide a signal of 500 kHz with 70% AM at 1 kHz modulation rate. Set the RF
level to 6 dBm. (If a 2041 is being used, it should be set to normal noise mode.)
(5) Check that the AM depth indicated on the UUT is within ±5% of reading ±1 digit of the
depth indicated on the external Modulation meter.
(6) Repeat steps 4 and 5 for RF carrier frequencies of 500 MHz and 1050 MHz.
(7) Refer to Results table 5-26 on page 5-39. On the UUT, select the 300 Hz lowpass filter and
TX FR
EQ 100 M
Hz.
(8) Set the external modulation monitor bandwidth to 30 Hz to 50 kHz.
(9) Set the RF signal generator to provide a signal of 100 MHz with 70% depth at 50 Hz
modulation rate . Check that the modulation depth indicated on the UUT is within ±8.5% of
reading ±1 digit of the depth indicated on the Modulation meter.
(10) On the UUT select the 50 kHz lowpass AF filter and the 300 kHz IF filter. Change the
modulation rate on the RF signal generator to 10 kHz and check that the modulation depth
indicated on the UUT is within ±8.5% of rdg ±1 digit, of the depth indicated on the
Modulation meter.
(11) Refer to Results table 5-27 on page 5-40. W
hen finished, select the 0.3 to 3.4 kHz AF filter
on both the UUT and the external Modulation m
eter. Select the 30 kHz IF filter on the UUT.
(12) Set the RF signal generator modulation rate to 1 kHz and set 5% AM depth.
(13) Check that the AM depth indicated on the UUT is within ±5% of reading ±1 digit of the
depth indicated on the Modulation meter. Repeat with the RF signal generator set to provide
depths of 20%, 50%, 80%, and 95%.
(14) Refer to Results table 5-28 on page 5-40. Select th
e Oscillo
scope on the UUT. Set a
timebase of 500us/div and a vertical scale of 10%/div.
(15) Set the RF signal generator to provide 60% AM, adjusting this level until the demodulated
signal on the display occupies the full six divisions. Check that the modulation indicated on
the external Modulation meter is 60% ±10%.
(16) Remove the splitter and Modulation meter and connect the RF signal generator directly to
the UUT BNC input.
