ETSI/ANSI Internal Transmitter Clock Rates
(Option 110)
Specification
Description
A frequency Counter terminated in 75 ohms and connected to the Option 110 Trans-
mit Module front panel Clock Out Port is used to verify the frequency accuracy of
the transmitted data at all rates.
E3 (34.368Mb/s) Frequency Accuracy
1. Recall the HP 37717C Default Settings as shown on 3-2. Select TRANSMIT,
PDH/DSn, MAIN SETTINGS and set the SIGNAL to 34 Mb/s.
2. Adjust the Frequency Counter ATTEN and Trigger Level to obtain a stable
reading and ensure that the frequency counter reading is between 34367845.3 Hz and
34368154.7 Hz.
3. Set the FREQUENCY OFFSET to [USER OFFSET] [+20PPM].
4. Adjust the Frequency Counter ATTEN and Trigger Level to obtain a stable
reading and ensure that the frequency counter reading is between 34368532.7 Hz and
34368842.0 Hz.
5. Set the FREQUENCY OFFSET to [USER OFFSET] [-20PPM].
6. Adjust the Frequency Counter ATTEN and Trigger Level to obtain a stable
reading and ensure that the frequency counter reading is between 34367158.0 Hz and
34367467.3 Hz.
