Equipment Note :
Amplifiers can be damaged with excess input power
Bad Cabling can result in excess reflected power

During Testing: NO Body inside Shielded Structure.
Caution Radiated Susceptibility Testing involves very high Frequencies with power levels.
Testing is done inside an enclosed shielded Structure to prevent energy from entering or exiting structure.
Testing is done inside an enclosed shielded Structure to prevent energy from entering or exiting structure.
Before entering the Enclosed Shielded Structure, MAKE SURE the Signal Generator is disabled with highest attenuation (=lowest gain) (or better yet Powered OFF), Amplifiers Disable, Power Meter indicates no Power.
