CORRECTION page
Pressing the [Meas Setup] key followed by the CORRECTION opens the 
CORRECTION page. The CORRECTION page allows you to perform 
Open/Short/Load correction to compensate for any error caused by 
disturbances such as stray admittances and residual impedances. It also 
allows you to select the cable length. 
The correction feature supports the following two correction methods: 
•Correction based on all frequency points
•Correction based on user-specified frequency points
Correction based on all frequency points involves performing open/short 
correction at all measurement points throughout the entire frequency range. 
Correction based on user-specified frequency points involves performing 
open/short/load correction at the user-specified frequency points. 
Each correction dataset can be deleted by using the [Preset] key. For more 
information, see “Initializing the Instrument” on page 87. 
In this page, you can configure each of the following controls with the cursor 
placed in the corresponding field (denoted in parentheses). 
• Open correction (OPEN field)
• Short correction (SHORT field)
• Load correction (LOAD field)
• Cable length selection (CABLE field)
• Multiple/single correction mode selection (MODE field)
• Measurement function for load correction (FUNC field)
• Channel selection for multiple correction mode (CH field)
• User-specified frequencies 1 to 201 for open/load/short correction (SPOT 
and FREQ fields) 
• Measurement value and reference value at specified frequency points for 
open/short/load correction (REF A, REF B, OPEN A, OPEN B, SHORT A, 
SHORT B, LOAD A, and LOAD B fields)
Figure 4-8 shows the fields available on this page along with the softkeys 
corresponding to them. 
Correction when measuring DC resistance is performed only when the 
measurement parameter is Lp-Rdc and Ls-Rdc.
