Calibration
D. Calibration When an Exclusive Fixture is Connected to the 42942A
See “Adapter Setting” on page  67 for adapter selection.
Step 2. When performing calibration for the 7-mm port of the 42942A with a user-defined 
calibration kit, be sure to use the proper calibration kit. Refer to “User Calibration” on 
page  147 for the user calibration procedure.
User calibration is not required if you do not use a user-defined calibration kit.
Step 3. Connect a test fixture to the 7-mm port of the 42942A Terminal Adapter. See the operation 
manual of each test fixture for the appropriate connection setup.
Step 4. Perform the fixture compensation at the device contacts (electrodes) of the fixture. See 
“Fixture Compensation” on page  151 for the fixture compensation procedure.
NOTE When an exclusive test fixture is connected to the 7-mm port of a 42942A that is also 
connected to the four-terminal pair port of the Agilent 4294A, port extension compensation 
is not required.
