[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:AUTO:TYPE <CalType>[, <Characterization>[,
<TestPort1>[, <TestPort2>]...]]
Selects and initiates an automatic calibration at arbitrary analyzer and cal unit ports.
This command also selects the calibration type. A progress monitor for the calibration
sweeps is displayed.
Tip: If the test setup contains a high attenuation the analyzer may fail to detect the cal
unit ports connected to each of its ports. In this case use the extended command
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:AUTO:PORTs:TYPE.
If several calibration units are connected, use SYSTem:COMMunicate:RDEVice:
AKAL:ADDRess to select a unit for the calibration.
Suffix:
<Ch>
.
Channel number of the calibrated channel
Setting parameters:
<CalType> FNPort | TOSM | FOPort | OPTPort | FRTRans | FTRans |
RTRans | REFL | RSHort
See [SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:AUTO:
CONFigure on page 903.
<Characterization> Location of the characterization (cal kit file) to be used for the
automatic calibration (string parameter):
– The empty string (' ') refers to the factory calibration of (and
stored on) the active calibration unit.
– A VNA cal kit file name *.calkit without path refers to a
specific cal kit file stored in the internal memory of the active cal-
ibration unit.
– A VNA cal kit file name without path but prefixed with "SD:"
refers to a specific cal kit file stored on the SD card inserted at
the active calibration unit.
– A VNA cal kit file name *.calkit with path refers to a spe-
cific cal kit file stored in an arbitrary directory on the analyzer.
<TestPort1>
Test port numbers. For an n-port automatic calibration, n arbi-
trary (not necessarily consecutive) port numbers must be speci-
fied.
<TestPort2> Second test port number of the analyzer
Example:
CORR:COLL:AUTO:TYPE FNPort, '', 1, 2, 4
Perform an automatic full 3-port calibration at test ports 1, 2,
and 4 using the calibration unit's default calibration kit file and
arbitrary test ports of the cal unit.
Usage: Setting only
Manual operation: See "Calibration Type / Source" on page 477
