Correction Functions
of the
4263B
The
4263B
has
the
following correction
functions,
Cable Length
correction, OPEN,
SHORT,
and
LO
AD
corrections
.
These correction
functions are
used to
correct errors
due to
test xtures
and
test
leads
.
T

lists these
correction functions
with a
brief description
of each.
