Picture above is off the rack of the 449MHz system and its components important for powering up the profiler.


SETUP

Power Supplies:

HPA Voltage supply - Agilent N5769A 

       3. Turn on power supply

       4. Press limit and use voltage knob to set DC power to ~40 V  

       5. Still in Limit screen, use current knob to se Current to 15 A

Driver Amp Tray Supply - Agilent N6702A 

       6. Turn on power supply

       ** Note: This power supply was previously set up to remember the parameter given. CH 1 is the only one needed for the DBP. 

       7. Make sure CH 1 is selected. Use channel button to scroll through until selected.  (If you want to verify correct voltage and current you can press either voltage or current buttons and the preset parameters will appear. The correct parameters are 31V and 4A)


POWERING ON

  1. Press ON/OFF button on Agilent N6702A power supply. 
  2. Press Out ON button on Agilent N5769A power supply.
  3. Once the 2nd power supply is on, press the limit button and slowly increase the voltage to 50V using the voltage knob, the fine button can also be used for slow adjustments towards the end.
