Calibrate the Site Analyzer
If you need to use an extension cable or a phase stable cable, connect
that cable to the antenna test port on the Site Analyzer and then con-
nect the Bird Calibration Combination to the end of the extension
cable. Follow the procedure in Chapter 2, Calibration, page 15.
Note:
After calibration, with the load still connected, the
output must be below –45 dB. If it is not, there is a problem. It is
common to see spikes from –60 to –45 dB. These can be ignored.
Remove the Cal Combo from the cable.
Setting the Cable Type
Setting the cable type means that you enter values for the velocity of
propagation and the cable loss. You can set the cable type manually or
choose from a list of preset values. When you manually enter a value
for the velocity of propagation or cable loss, the Cable List entry
becomes “Custom”.
Note:
Changing the cable type or velocity of propagation
will reset the distance scale to the maximum possible distance.
Always set the cable type before setting the distance scale.
