Procedures for setting measurement parameters
Follow the steps below to set the measurement parameters. In this case, we measure the
harmonic distortion magnitude by using the frequency-offset sweep and the absolute
measurement function, based on the E5070B/E5071B’s internal signal source.
NOTE Receiver calibration is required before starting absolute measurement. For detailed
information on receiver calibration, see "Receiver Calibration" on page 220.
Step 1. Press (or ) and (or ) to activate the trace for
which you want to implement absolute measurement.
Step 2. Press to display the “Measurement Menu.”
Step 3. Press
Absolute to select absolute measurement parameters (B (1)). Accordingly, the
stimulus port and test port are set to 1 and 2, respectively.
Step 4. In this case, the segment sweep function is used to perform faster measurement. For
detailed information on segment sweep, see "Performing a Segment-by-Segment Sweep
(segment sweep)" on page 417.
Step 5. Press -
Edit Segment Table to display the “Edit Segment Table Menu.”
Step 6. Set
Frequency Mode to Center/Span.
Step 7. Refer to Table 8-5 to input numbers in the segment table, and then press
Return to return to
the “Sweep Setup Menu.”
