National Instruments PXIe-5655 User Manual

Note Ensure that any connected external hardware is in an idle
state and not outputting signals during self-calibration. It is not
recommended to perform self-calibration while connected in direct
loopback configurations.
Note For the best image rejection and residual LO performance, run Self
Cal or Self Calibrate Range for the image rejection and residual LO portion
any time the module temperature changes beyond ±1 °C.
