TEGAM Forums

Hello,

I am using a procedure that utilizes the Tegam 1830A as the Power Meter for a 478A Thermistor Mount. It asks for the technician to read the display in dB instead of mW. Is it possible to change the display units shown on the 1830A from mW to dB and if so can someone detail the procedure?

When the 1830A is on a normal mode (not in a menu, etc.), using UP and DOWN arrows will cycle the main display through several formats. In one of the formats, "Cal RF Power" is displayed in dBm. To go back to Watts, just cycle through the formats to get the one you want.

Andy,

Thank you very much for that info. The procedure would be a lot clearer had the technical writers placed that info into it.
