To import a ZVA-specific or ZVR-specific cal kit file (*.ck or *.calkit) you can also use the Windows
Explorer and simply double-click the file or drag and drop the file into the NWA application. The imported
cal kit file is automatically set active.
Importing older ZVR cal kit files
On loading some older ZVR-specific *.ck files, e.g. the ZV-Z23 cal kit file, the ZVA generates the
message File does not comply with instrument calibration kit file format. The files must be
converted using a ZVR network analyzer equipped with a firmware version V3.52 or higer. Proceed
as follows:
1. On the ZVR, press CAL – CAL KITS – MODIFY KITS – INSTALL NEW KIT to import the
*.ck file.
2. Press CREATE INST FILE in the same submenu to export the *.ck file in a ZVA-
compatible format.
3. Import the converted file into the ZVA.
*.csv cal kit files: VNA Cal Kit Manager 2.1
The VNA Cal Kit Manager is a free, Windows-based software tool intended to import, edit, and
export *.csv cal kit files. The software is available for download at
http://www.vnahelp.com/products.html. The decimal separator used by the VNA Cal Kit Manager
V2.1 depends on the language version of the Windows operating system: Cal kit files generated on
an English operating system contain dots, the ones generated on a German system contain
commas.
The network analyzer expects the dot as a separator and displays an error message when a *.csv
file with commas is loaded. Please install the VNA Cal Kit Manager V2.1 on an appropriate (e.g.
English) Windows version to avoid trouble.
*.prn cal kit files: PNA Cal Kit Editor
The network analyzer can import and process cal kit files created with the PNA Cal Kit Editor. The
files use the extension *.prn; the data format is identical to the *.csv format.
The decimal separator used by the PNA Cal Kit Editor depends on the language version of the
Windows operating system: Cal kit files generated on an English operating system contain dots,
the ones generated on a German system contain commas.
The network analyzer expects the dot as a separator and displays an error message when a *.prn
file with commas is loaded. Please install the PNA Cal Kit Editor on an appropriate (e.g. English)
Windows version to avoid trouble.
