Adapter Setting
NOTE When you select “No Adapter” (NONE key) in adapter selection, adapter setup cannot be 
performed.
Adapter setup data can be obtained and saved for each adapter selection.
Adapter setting (adapter selection and adapter setup data) is not affected by turning on/off 
the Agilent 4294A or by pressing the [Preset] key to initialize the instrument settings.
Adapter Setup Procedure for the 16048G and 16048H
When you use the 16048G 1 m cable or 16048H 2 m cable with another accessory, only 
perform the adapter setup for the 16048G or 16048H. The operation manuals of the 
16048G and 16048H also describe the adapter setup procedure.
NOTE Adapter setup should be performed at an ambient temperature as close as possible to the 
temperature in which the device measurement will actually be made.
If the ambient temperature for your measurement is outside the range of ±5°C from the 
adapter setup temperature, it is recommended that you perform adapter setup again at the 
appropriate temperature.
It takes a few minutes to complete each setup data measurement.
During each data measurement, the message “WAIT--MEASURING ADJUSTMENT 
KIT” is displayed in the instrument state area in the LCD's upper-left side.
Step 1. Make sure that the 16048G or 16048H is correctly connected to the four-terminal pair port 
of the Agilent 4294A.
