2.
Verify that the Phase Detector DC offset is < 30 mV (< 50 mV for the 1.2 to
1.8 GHz Phase Detector). If the dc offset is within this limit and the beatnote level
is < -23 dBV (< 0.1 Vpk at AUX MONITOR port), increase the beatnote level, if
possible, by increasing the signal level at the R port. If the beatnote level cannot be
increased sufficiently it may be necessary to decrease the dc offset by changing the
carrier frequency.
Detector Constant < 0.02 V/Rad. The measured Phase Detector Constant was below
the system's 20 mV limit.
Action:
Observe the beatnote on the HP 3561A display or with an oscilloscope
connected to the AUX MONITOR port on the HP 11848A. Verify that the beatnote
amplitude is correct for the signal level at the R input port on the HP 11848A. Figure 8-6
shows the relationship between the beatnote level and the level at the R port. If
necessary, increase the signal level at the R port and verify that the signal level at the
L port is > +15 dBm (> +7 dBm for the 1.2 GHz to 18 GHz Phase Detector).
