Noise Level Accuracy Troubleshooting

Power meters with firmware version A2.03.00 (or A1.03.00) may not operate properly with the new test software. Upgrade the power meter firmware if necessary.

Review the General Troubleshooting recommendations before proceeding with this section.

This test assumes that Power Level Accuracy (Source Power Accuracy) and Power Level Linearity (Source Power Linearity) performance tests have both passed.

There are no recommended adjustments for an analyzer which fails the Noise Floor Performance Test.

If a phase lock lost error occurs during the test, performing a source adjustment may help if the source output level is marginally low.

Refer to the appropriate PNA service guide for specific troubleshooting suggestions and replacement procedures.
