4530 Series RF Power Meter

Table 3-8. Sensor Zero / Cal Status Codes

00

operation complete, no errors

03

coarse peak offset failed

04

top power code too low or too high

05

zero power point invalid

06

power entries nonmonotonic

07

code entries nonmonotonic (sensor may not be warmed up - try again)

08

too far (over 32dB) to extend table

13

zero offset signal level too low

14

zero offset signal level too high (sensor probably connected to signal source)

15

zero offset code value out of range (sensor probably connected to signal source)

23

step calibration signal level too high

24

zero offset adjustment invalid

26

autocal step signal level too high

27

autocal step signal level too low (sensor probably not connected to correct calibrator)

28

step calibration linearity questionable (sensor may not be warmed up - try again)

29

fixed cal power level invalid (fixed cal should be attempted only at 0dBm)

2A

fixed cal input power level too high

2B

fixed cal input power level too low

Table 3-9. Startup Error Messages

These messages appear briefly during startup if a system error is detected. The error status may also be viewed on
the display menu Utilities>Sys-Tests>SystemInf. Try a power off/on cycle to recover normal operation. If this fails,
service may be required.

DSP S/W Failed

The DSP is not running or failed to respond.

DSP - NoResp

During normal operation, the DSP failed to respond to a command.

DSP-CalTbl

During the boot-up process, an error occurred while down loading the calibra-
tion tables to the DSP.

DSP-IniErr

During the boot-up process, an error occurred while down loading the channel
parameters to the DSP.

No System Calib. Tables

The calibrator is missing its internal calibration tables. This requires factory
recalibration of the internal 50 MHz calibrator for proper operation.

No DC Calibration Data

The instrument is missing its CW channel gain calibration table. This requires
factory recalibration for proper operation.

Chan# Cal Table: Err

The DSP cal table for this peak sensor is not initialized. An autocal is needed.

Sensor# EEProm: Err

Checksum Error in one of the EEPROM pages. If this error occurs again after a
power cycle, sensor service may be required.

No DSP Data Records

The flash memory does not contain valid DSP instruction code. Try reinstalling

operating firmware.
