Definitions and Conditions
Specifications describe the performance of parameters covered by the product
warranty and apply to the full temperature range of 0 to 55 °C, unless otherwise
noted.
95th percentile values indicate the breadth of the population (approx. 2 σ) of
performance tolerances expected to be met in 95 percent of the cases with a
95 percent confidence, for any ambient temperature in the range of 20 to 30 °C.
In addition to the statistical observations of a sample of instruments, these
values include the effects of the uncertainties of external calibration references.
These values are not warranted. These values are updated occasionally if
a significant change in the statistically observed behavior of production
instruments is observed.
Typical describes additional product performance information that is not covered
by the product warranty. It is performance beyond specifications that 80 percent
of the units exhibit with a 95 percent confidence level over the temperature range
20 to 30 °C. Typical performance does not include measurement uncertainty.
Nominal values indicate expected performance, or describe product performance
that is useful in the application of the product, but are not covered by the
product warranty.
The receiver will meet its specifications when:
• It is within its calibration cycle
• Under auto couple control, except when Auto Sweep Time Rules = Accy
• Signal frequencies < 10 MHz, with DC coupling applied
• The receiver has been stored at an ambient temperature within the allowed
operating range for at least two hours before being turned on
• The receiver has been turned on at least 30 minutes with Auto Align set to
normal, or, if Auto Align is set to off or partial, alignments must have been run
recently enough to prevent an Alert message; if the Alert condition is changed
from “Time and Temperature” to one of the disabled duration choices, the
receiver may fail to meet specifications without informing the user
