RF signal generator PLL
 

What I;m doing now is doing test of a rf signal generator.

When I turned it on, it showed Uncal warning and generated no rf

signal.


Meaning of error code was that PLL is unlocked.


I'm ,however, newcomer to RF generator world.

What does "PLL unlocked " means for RF signal generator.


The model I'm doing test is


fluek 6060 B

RF signal generator PLL
 

Unlocked PLL norrmally means the Phase Lock Loop device is free running,
that the control datum, or parametres are either out of range or are
incorrect for that particular item. Suggest referring to the operations
manual for the Fluke generator you are attempting to use. Check the
operating frequencies the item will actually output and the 'mode du emploe'
it's specific function.

Next to the RF output connector, there is an RF Output On/Off button.
Push it to turn on the
output. The "Uncal" indicator should go out. The "Uncal" indicator
normally comes on when the
RF Output is turned Off. IIRC, the 6060B powers up in the RF Off,
"Uncal" state.
Also make sure the Freq. REF switch on the rear panel is set to "INT",
unless you're using
an external frequnecy standard.
