Description
The CAL OUTPUT signal is connected to the RF INPUT through a
step attenuator. The instrument is placed in zero frequency span to
produce a dc level output from the log amplifier. The
A4A2R79
ZERO
adjustment, which sets the dc offset of the output buffer amplifier of
the log board, is checked and adjusted if necessary. The dc level into
the video processor is is adjusted by’varying the input signal level and
reference level. The offsets and gains on the
A4Al
Video Processor
are adjusted for proper levels using a DVM.
