Editing/Generating sensor calibration tables
To help achieve the best accuracy in your measurement you can enter the values
supplied for the sensors you are using by editing the installed sensor calibration
tables or by generating your own custom tables.
You cannot delete any of the 20 existing calibration tables or create any additional
tables. However, you can edit or delete the content of each table. If you need
another table you should edit and re-name one of the tables.Each calibration
table can contain a maximum of 80 frequency points.
To view the calibration tables currently stored in the power meter, press ,
, . The Sensor Tbls screen is displayed as shown in
Figure 8-8.
Predefined sensor calibration factor table stored in power meter is not
applicable for Keysight N8480 Series power sensors with Option CFT. Therefore,
users are required to create a new sensor calibration table for the sensors when
a sensor calibration table is needed.
