Situation:
Instruments le av in g th e fa ct or y ca n fa il the low Fre qu ency Response speci fica ti on les s th an 50kHz. Manufacturing discovered a software problem where incorrect low frequency flatness correction values were being loaded into the instrument memory.
Solution / Action:
Perform the Frequency Response test using the automated software (N2717A) or run the test manually as per the ESA Calibration Guide. If the test fails, you will need to load new flatness correction values into the analyzer by using the N2717A Performance Test Adjustment software or sending the instrument into an Agilent Technologies customer service center. The instrument will be adjusted at no charge.
