Boonton 4500B RF Peak Power Analyzer
Operation 4-12
4.9 CHAN Key and Chan # > Menu
The CHAN key activates the Chan # > menu and associated submenus, which enable you to calibrate the sensor, specify
units, define pulse parameters, set measurement correction factors, and select sensor bandwidth. See Figure 4-12.
Menu Configuration
The configuration of the Chan # > menu depends on the item selected
in the Chan # > Selection window. Figure 4-12 presents the Chan # >
menu, which is displayed when the instrument is initialized. (Chan 1
is the default menu.) The Chan # > menu items enable you to control
the display of the measurement channel. Instructions for using the
Chan # > menu are presented in Table 4-2.
The default Chan # > menu contains two submenus of additional
functions:
Figure 4-13 illustrates the Chan # > Calibration > submenu,
which is used to initiate the calibration and zeroing functions.
Instructions for using the Chan # > Calibration > submenu
are presented in Table 4-3.
Figure 4-14 illustrates the Chan # > Extensions > submenu,
which provides access to a number of additional setup functions.
Instructions for using the Chan # > Extensions > submenu are
presented in Table 4-4.
Figure 4-16 illustrates a second version of the Chan > menu that appears
when ―CH Math‖ has been selected. A submenu of the Chan Math >
menu enables you to control the display of the calculated sum or
difference of the detected Channel 1 and/or Channel 2 signals.
Instructions for the Chan Math > menu are presented in Tables 4-5
and 4-6.
Figure 4-18 shows the Chan > Mem 1 menu, which appears when
―Mem 1‖ has been selected. The Mem # waveform is a ―snapshot‖
of either the Channel 1 or Channel 2 waveforms, which is created
and stored for later reference. The menu items that enable you to
control the display of stored waveforms are explained in Table 4-7.
