Performance Tests
Overview of Performance Tests
3- 3
Service Support Software runs performance tests and, where applicable, generates performance test records
(reports) of the results for the tests. The following manual tests are not listed in the Service Support Software:
• “Timebase Aging Rate (Manual Test - Option UNJ, Option 506, or Option 1E5 Only)” on page 3-24
• “Phase Noise and Residual FM (Manual Test - Option UNJ or Option 506 Only)” on page 3-35
Performance tests are listed in the order that they should be performed to minimize
changes in test equipment configurations.
Note that all performance tests are not used with all options when testing the
Agilent E4438C ESG vector signal generator.
