GENERAL INFORMATION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
MN4790A Test Set The Series MN4790A test set contains two SPDT pin switches at Test
Port 1 and Test Port 3. One output of each switch is linked to a Wilkinson type combiner that combines the two RF signals from Port 1 and Port 3 of the Scorpion.As an option to boost the input RF power to the amplifier-under-test (AUT), external preamplifiers can be inserted between:
Scorpion Port 1 and the test set Test Port 1
q
Scorpion Port 3 and the test set Test Port 3
q
The output of the combiner is fed to a SP3T source selection switch that enables one of the following to be applied to the AUT:
The combined signal from the Scorpion sources
q
The signal from the Scorpion Source 1 via Port 1
q
(bypassing the combiner) A modulated signal from an optional, external modulation
q
synthesizer
The second output of the switch at Test Port 1 is linked to the source selection switch.The second output of the switch at Test Port 3 is linked to the Bypass output port at the front panel.
The output of the source selection switch is fed to a SPDT switch that enables the signal to be routed to the ANT A port or the ANT B port at the front panel.
An SPDT switch multiplexes the signal to and from the RBS A and RBS B ports at the front panel. The output of this switch is linked to a SP3T selection switch that enables the signal to be routed to one of the two AUX Out ports, or via the built-in step attenuator to Test Port 2 of the test set.
The MN4790A front and rear panels are illustrated in Figure 1-1 on the following page. Figure 1-2,on page 1-5, shows an overall block dia gram of the test system.

q
cation
3-2 CONVENTIONS The test instructions in this chapter will direct the use of the front
panel hard-keys and soft-keys of the MS4623B.These hard-keys and soft-keys are distinguished by a different typeface. For example:
Step 1. Press the Utility key and select:
DIAGNOSTICS TROUBLESHOOTING MORE VERIFY ALC CALIBRATION
The Utility key is a front panel hard-key and the DIAGNOSTICS, TROUBLESHOOTING, MORE, and VERIFY ALC CALIBRATION keys
are all soft-keys.
3-3 PRELIMINARY The following information describes the preliminary setup and
indicates the general tests that verify the performance of your test system. It is important to first verify the performance of the MS4623B separate from TMATS.
-
MS4623B VNMS Prior to performing any of the MS4623B performance verification
tests, disconnect the RF cables linked between the front panels of the MS4623B and the MN4790A test set.
Follow the procedures in Chapter 2 of the MS462XX Vector Network Measurement Systems Maintenance Manual (part number 10410-00205) to verify that the MS4623B is working properly.

Table 3-2. RF Measurement Chart
The first three columns are conversion tables for return loss, reflection coefficient, and SWR.
The last four columns are values for interactions of a small phasor X with a large phasor (unity reference) expressed in dB related to the reference.
The RF Measurement Chart can be used to determine the uncertainty due to bridge/autotester VNA directivity. The “X dB Below Reference” column represents the difference between the directivity and the measured reflection (return loss). The “Ref + X dB” and “Ref – X dB” values are 360°. Therefore, the peak-to-peak ripple (1 ± X) is the total measurement uncertainty caused by the error signal.
For example, if a 30 dB return loss is measured with a 40 dB directivity autotester, the X dB Below Reference value is 10 dB. The Ref+XdBvalue is
2.3866 dB and the Ref–XdBvalue is
3.3018 dB. The actual return loss is between
27.6134 dB (– 30 + 2.3866) and
33.3018 dB (– 30 – 3.3018). The peak-to-peak ripple on a swept measurement will be 5.6884 dB. If the error and directivity signals are equal, the Ref+XdBvalue equals 6 dB (voltage doubling causesa6dBchange) and the Ref–XdBvalue becomes infinite, since the two signals are equal in amplitude and 180° out of phase (zero voltage).

Chapter 5 Removal and Replacement Procedures

5-1 INTRODUCTION This chapter provides procedures for removing and reinstalling the
replaceable subassemblies listed in Chapter 2, Table 2-1.
5-2 EQUIPMENT REQUIRED All procedures in this chapter require the use of either a #1 or #2 size
Phillips type screw driver. Most procedures require the use of a 5/16 inch wrench and the Anritsu 01-201 (8 inch-pounds) torque wrench. Some procedures require the use of a small jewelers Phillips screwdriver.
CAUTION
Always use a torque wrench calibrated to 8 inch-pounds when tightening SMA connectors. Over-torquing will cause damage to the RF connectors.
5-3 REMOVING THE COVERS Troubleshooting operations require removal of the top cover.
Replacement of some test set assemblies and parts require removal of all covers. The following procedure describes this process.
Preliminary
Step 1. Switch the test set power off and remove the power cord. Step 2. Remove the test set from the ME7842B test system by disconnecting
all cable connections and separating the test set from the MS4623B.
Procedure Refer to Figure 5-1, page 5-3, during this procedure.
NOTE
It is only necessary to loosen the test set’s front handle assemblies to remove the top, bottom, or side covers. However, if the front panel is to be removed, the handle assemblies should also be removed.

failure in the field. When a precision component is mated with a connector having a destructive pin depth, damage will likely occur to the precision component’s connector. A connector is considered to have destructive pin depth when the center pin is too long with respect to the connector’s reference plane (Figure A-1).
Before mating an unknown or new device with your test set port connectors or calibration devices, always measure the pin depth of the device’s connectors. Use an Anritsu Pin Depth Gauge,or equivalent,for these measurements (Figure A-2). Also, measure the connector pin depth of a device when intermittent or degraded performance is suspected.
Gauging sets for measuring the pin depth of precision connectors are available from your nearest Anritsu service center, or from the factory. Instructions for measuring connector pin depth are included with the gauging set.

Figure A-2. Pin Depth Gauge
MN4790A MM A-1
PRECAUTIONS APPENDIX A
Pin Depth Tolerance The center pin of a precision connector has a tolerances measured in
mils (one mil = 1/1000 inch). The connectors of test devices may not be precision types and they may not have the proper pin depth. These connectors should be measured before mating to ensure suitability.
When gauging pin depth, if the connector being measured indicates out of tolerance in the “+” region of the gauge (Table A-1), the center pin is too long. Mating under this condition will likely damage the mat ing connector. On the other hand,if the test device connector indicates out of tolerance in the “–” region,the center pin is too short. While this will not cause any damage, it will result in a poor connection and a consequent degradation in performance.

Over torquing connectors is destructive;it may damage the connector center pin.Finger tight is usually sufficient,especially on Type N con nectors. Should it be necessary to use a wrench to tighten SMA or WSMA connectors, use a torque wrench that breaks at 8 inch-pounds. As a general rule, never use pliers to tighten connectors.
The center conductor on many precision connectors contains a small Teflon tuning washer located near the point of mating (interface). This washer compensates for minor impedance discontinuities at the inter face. The washer’s location is critical to the connector’s performance.
Do not disturb the Teflon Tuning Washer.

Avoid Mechanical
Shock
Precision connectors are designed to withstand years of normal bench handling. Do not drop or otherwise treat them roughly. They are labo
­ratory-quality devices, and like other such devices, they require careful handling.
