IDENTIFICATION AND DESCRIPTION
1. Test Instrument Identification.
This bulletin provides instructions for the
Frequency Counter TD-1225A(V)1/U (Hewlett-Packard, Model 5342A/H14), TD-
1225A(V)2/U (Hewlett-Packard, Model 5342A/H16) and Hewlett-Packard, Models 5342A
and 5343A. The manufacturers' manuals were used as the prime data sources in compiling
these instructions. The equipment being calibrated will be referred to as the TI (test
instrument) throughout this bulletin.
a. Model Variations. Variations among models are described in text.
b. Time and Technique. The time required for this calibration is approximately 3
hours, using the microwave technique.
