10.12.1.3 Calibration Unit wizard
The "Calibration Unit" wizard guides you through the setup and execution of an auto-
matic calibration.
Access: [Cal] > "Calibration" > "Start... (Cal Unit)"
The wizard proceeds in three steps.
1. Step 1: Ports allows you to configure the calibration and to select a calibration unit
(along with its characterization).
2. Step 2: Connections allows you to define the port assignments between the
R&S ZNL/ZNLE and the calibration unit.
3. Step 3: Cal Unit guides you through the required measurements on the standards
provided by the calibration unit. Finally, you can either apply the resulting error
terms to the related channels, or discard them.
Background information
Refer to Chapter 9.5.5, "Automatic calibration", on page 262.
●
A successful calibration supersedes the previous calibration, discarding all previ-
ous system error correction data.
To keep older correction data, you can transfer them to the calibration "Pool" using
the Calibration Manager dialog.
●
The system error correction data that are determined in a calibration procedure,
are stored in the analyzer. It is possible to retrieve these data using the remote
control command [SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:CDATa.
Step 1: Ports
Allows you to define the calibration to be performed and to select the calibration unit to
be used (along with its characterization).
