Frequency Response Error Corrections

7. To measure the standard when the displayed trace has settled, press or .
If the calibration kit you selected has a choice between male and female calibration standards,
remember to select the sex that applies to the test port and not the standard.
The analyzer displays WAIT - MEASURING CAL STANDARD during the standard measurement. The
analyzer underlines the softkey that you selected after it finishes the measurement, and computes the
error coefficients.
NOTE This calibration allows only one standard to be measured. If you press the wrong key for a
standard, press
again and choose the correct standard. Do not use a thru
standard for a reflection response correction.
NOTE You can save or store the measurement correction to use for later measurements, that use
the same measurement parameters. Refer to the
Chapter 4 , “Printing, Plotting, and Saving
Measurement Results” for procedures.
This completes the response correction for reflection measurements. You can connect and measure your
device under test.
