Anyone had any exposure to the Spirent TAS 4500 or TAS 4600 Channel Emulators? I'm trying to figure out if we can calibrate them, and can't find good documentation.
I found an operators manual, but no info regarding cal.
Good luck. I just sent one to the OEM for calibration. I don't think you will be able to cal it.
I did find the performance verification for the TAS 4500. One of the used test equipment dealers had a PDF available. It was pretty straightforward, and required only a spectrum analyzer and RF signal generator.
I had search engine hits for the TAS 4600A verification procedure from a website in Korea, but it was a dead link. The TAS 4500 procedure is TAS Application Note #40 "TAS 4500 FLEX Verification Procedure" dated 1/12/2007. The one for the TAS 4600A appears to be TAS Application Note #49, but not to be found on the web.
I'll keep trying. I'm going to email the OEM today about that one.
I also found a number of the docs for both models (operators, config, etc.).
