Manual Overview

The Rohde & Schwarz USVH Selective Microvoltmeter operation manual provides detailed instructions for troubleshooting, calibration, and maintenance of the device. For troubleshooting, the manual emphasizes checking the mechanical zero of the meter and ensuring no signal or noise is applied during the process. Calibration is crucial for accurate measurements and involves setting the frequency range switch and IF bandwidth switch according to specified ranges. The manual outlines four calibration scenarios based on frequency and bandwidth, with detailed steps for each. Error diagnostics are not explicitly detailed, but maintaining frequency accuracy and stability is stressed, particularly after a warm-up period. Adjustments at the board level include setting the local AC supply voltage and ensuring the correct fuse is used. The manual specifies the need for precise tuning and calibration to achieve optimal performance, especially in high-frequency applications.

Installation / Setup

The installation and setup of the Selective Microvoltmeter Type USVH BN 1521 involves several key steps:

1. Adjusting to Local AC Supply Voltage: The device is initially set for 220V AC. For other voltages (115V, 125V, or 235V), the chassis must be removed from its cabinet to adjust the fuse according to the desired voltage. A 400-mA fuse is suitable for 220V and 235V, while an 800-mA fuse is needed for 115V and 125V.

2. Mechanical Zero Setting: The meter’s pointer should be at mechanical zero when the device is off. Adjustments can be made using the slotted shaft in the meter housing. With the device on, ensure no signal or noise voltage is applied when setting the zero.

3. Calibration: Calibration is necessary for accurate operation across four frequency ranges. The process involves setting the range switch to CALIBRATION (1 MHz) and the SCALE EXPANSION switch to WITHOUT, followed by specific adjustments for each frequency range.

4. Warming-Up Period: A warming-up period of about one hour is required for optimal frequency accuracy and stability, especially for measurements from 1 to 30 MHz at a 500 Hz IF bandwidth.

Operation

To operate the Selective Microvoltmeter Type USVH, follow these basic steps:

1. Adjust to Local AC Supply Voltage: The device is initially set for 220V AC. For other voltages (115V, 125V, or 235V), adjust by removing the chassis, inserting the appropriate fuse, and reassembling the unit.

2. Set Mechanical Zero on the Meter: Ensure the meter pointer is at zero with the device off. Adjust using the slotted shaft if necessary. When on, ensure no signal is applied and set the range switch to “10 mV/-40 dB”, IF BANDWIDTH to “500Hz”, and SCALE EXPANSION to WITHOUT.

3. Calibration: Perform calibrations for different frequency and bandwidth ranges. Set the range switch to CALIBRATION (1 MHz) and SCALE EXPANSION to WITHOUT. Follow specific steps for each calibration range as detailed in the manual.

These steps ensure proper setup and calibration for accurate measurements.
