PIM Master™ Passive Intermodulation Analyzer with Site Master™ Cable and Antenna Analyzer and 2-Port Option Measurement Guide : PIM versus Time : Making the Measurement
 
Making the Measurement
1. Press the Measurements main menu key. The Measurements menu is displayed.
2. Begin testing by pressing the Test submenu key, Measure is underlined while the test signal is being transmitted, and the Test submenu key is outlined in Red. Two high‑power test signals are transmitted from the PIM Master PIM test port to the DUT. PIM generated by the DUT is returned to the PIM Master. The results are displayed. The red RF On light on the PIM Master top panel illuminates during the PIM test, and RF ON is displayed in red in the PIM Summary Table on the measurement display screen.
Note 
During calibration, RF is On, but the RF ON message is not displayed. The CALIBRATION IN PROCESS... message is displayed in red letters on the measurement screen.
Test duration is specified in the Setup main menu. You can terminate the test early by pressing the Test submenu key so that Off is underlined.
Note 
When changing the IMD order, if the IM frequency is outside the Rx range, then the PIM Master will reset the F1 and F2 carrier frequencies to the default values.
3. Save the current measurement by pressing the Save Measurement submenu key. The Save dialog box opens.
4. Type a name for the measurement to be saved and press Enter. For additional information about file handling, refer to File Management in your PIM Master User Guide.
