5.11.1.1 Measurement modes and default calibration setup
When you open the Calibration wizard, the Calibration setup dialog, or the Calibrate All
dialog for the first time, the analyzer determines the preferred calibration setup based
on:
●
the channel's (or channels') measurement mode (or modes)
●
the channel's traces
●
whether a power meter is connected
The channel's (or channels') calibration setup is either written to the recall set automat-
ically, or you are asked to select between several reasonable setups (non-"Quick Start"
actions only).
