Attenuator Slope Test

N991xB and N993xB models with bandwidth Option B04 or B10 will also run an additional (functional) test, Attenuator Slope WBIF, to test the wide bandwidth path. The same equipment and connection setups will be used in the WBIF test.

This test applies to the following models:

This procedure will verify that the SA attenuator slope corrections are appropriate.
