1. Press {More (1 of 2)} > {User Flatness} > This opens the user flatness table editor and
{Configure Cal Array}. places the cursor over the frequency value (1 GHz)
for row 1. The RF output changes to the frequency
value of the table row containing the cursor and
1.000 000 000 00 is displayed the AMPLITUDE area
of the display.
2. Observe and record the measured value
from the power meter.
3. Subtract the measured value from 0 dBm.
4. Move the table cursor over the correction
value in row 1.
5. Press {Edit Item} > [enter the difference The signal generator adjusts the RF output
value from Step 3] > {dB}. amplitude based on the correction value entered.
6. Repeat Steps 2 through 5 until the power
meter reads 0 dBm.
7. Use the down arrow key to place the cursor over
the frequency value for the next row. The RF output
changes to the frequency value of the table row
containing the cursor, as shown in the AMPLITUDE
area of the display.
8. Repeat Steps 2 through 7 for every entry in
the User Flatness table.
1. Press {Load/Store}.
2. Press {Store to File}.
3. Enter the file name FLATCAL1 using the
alphanumeric soft keys and the numeric keypad.
4. Press {Enter}. The user flatness correction array file FLATCAL1 is
now stored in the memory catalog as a UFLT file.
Performing the user flatness
correction manually
If you are not using an Agilent
E4416A/17A/18A/19A power meter
or if you do not have GPIB interface
capability, you can perform the
user flatness correction manually.
Complete the steps in this section
and then continue with the User
Flatness Correction tutorial.
Save the user flatness correction
data to the memory catalog
This process allows you to save the
user flatness correction data as a
file in the signal generator’s memory
catalog. With several user flatness
correction files saved to the memory
catalog, specific files can be
recalled, loaded into the correction
array, and applied to the RF output
to satisfy specific RF output flatness
requirements.
1. Press [Return] > [Return] > {Flatness Off On}. This applies the user flatness correction array to
the RF output. The UF indicator is activated in the
AMPLITUDE section of the signal generator’s
display and the frequency correction data
contained in the correction array is applied to the
RF output amplitude.
