Checking Signal Generator Functionality

Use the following procedure to confirm that the signal generator powers up and that the internal check

identifies no errors. The internal check evaluates the operation of the signal generator and returns an error

message if it detects a problem.

NOTE When signal generators with Option 1E5 are first connected to ac line power, the error

message ERROR 514, Reference Oven Cold occurs which causes both the OVEN COLD

annunciator and the ERR annunciator to turn on.

After approximately five minutes, the OVEN COLD annunciator automatically clears, but the

ERR annunciator remains on until all errors are cleared from the error queue.

1. Turn on the signal generator and let it warm up for at least five minutes.

2. Run the instrument self-test by pressing Utility > Instrument Info/Help Mode > Self Test > Run Complete Self

Test. Upon completion a summary of the self-test will be displayed. Use the service guide to troubleshoot

any failures detected by the test.

NOTE Some circuits may require up to 50 minutes to warm up before passing the self-test. If

self-tests continue to fail after 50 minutes of warm up, troubleshoot the instrument.

3. Check to see if the ERR annunciator is on.

•IftheERR annunciator is on, review the error messages in the error queue by pressing

Utility > Error Info >View Next Error Message. The first error message in the error queue appears in the

display text area. (Refer to the signal generator error messages document for information about each

error message.)

After resolving all problems causing errors, press Clear Error Queue(s).

•IftheERR annunciator is off, the signal generator functionality check has passed.

Removing Outer and Inner Covers

Tools Required

Removing the Outer Cover

Refer to Figure 1.

1. Disconnect the power cord.

2. Using a T-20 driver, remove the two strap handles (1) by loosening the screws.

3. Using a T-15 driver, remove the center screws (3) on the four rear-panel feet (2).

4. Remove the four bottom feet (5) and (6) from the cover by pushing and pulling the tab.

5. Slide the outer cover (4) off the frame.

Removing the Inner Top Cover

Refer to Figure 1.

1. Using a T-10 driver, remove the ten screws (8) from the inner-top cover (7).

2. Remove the inner-top cover.

4. Attach the Option 002 label provided to the rear panel, near the original serial number label.

Re-Calibrating the Instrument

Refer to the ESG Vector Signal Generator Service Guide.

1. Turn the instrument on and let it warm up for 30 minutes.

2. Perform the following A7 Baseband Generator adjustments, in the order listed:

•SelfTest

• I/Q Gain/Offset/Quadrature Calibration

• I/Q Impairment Calibration

Verifying Instrument Calibration

To ensure proper calibration of the A7 Baseband Generator use the following performance tests, in the

order listed:

•SelfTest

• Harmonic, Subharmonic, and Nonharmonic Spurious Signals

• Digital Modulation Level Accuracy

• Internal Digital Modulation Quality (Option 402 only)

• Custom I/Q RF Modulation Quality (Option 402 only)

• CDMA Adjacent Channel Power (Not Used with Option UNB or Option 506)

• WCDMA Adjacent Channel Power (Option 400)

• Dual Arbitrary Waveform Generator Check

• GSM Loopback BER Check (Option 300 only)
