Basic mode
When "Cal Validation" is launched for the first time, it runs in basic mode. In this mode,
the R&S ZNA automatically detects the instrument ports connected to the cal unit, and
only validates connected ports. Thus, if a 2-port cal unit is connected to a 4-port cali-
brated channel, only the two connected instrument ports are validated against the cal
unit.
The validation logic proceeds through the connected ports p ∈ {1, ..., 4} in ascending
order, measuring S
pp
for the Open, Short and Match standard. It then compares the
measured S
pp
values with the corresponding reflection S parameters of the cal unit's
factory characterization. The on-screen feedback indicates success ("PASS", failure
("FAIL") or provides a warning about undetected ports.
