R&S ZVH Working with the Measurement Wizard
Using the Measurement Wizard
Operating Manual 1309.6946.12 - 09 74
3.2.2 Performing a Sequence of Measurements
Now that you have updated all parameters concerning the measurement task, you can
start the measurement procedure.
► Press the "Start Meas Set" softkey.
If you have not yet calibrated the R&S ZVH for the measurement, it asks you to
perform the calibration routine. The stages of the calibration depend on the defined
calibration routine.
For more information see "Calibrating Measurements" on page 44.
Calibration pool
The R&S ZVH adds the calibration data of each calibration you perform to a calibration
pool available on its internal memory. Each dataset in the calibration pool is unique for
a particular calibration method and a particular measurement configuration.
Note that the calibration is only valid for the instrument it has been performed on.
Before you start a measurement sequence with the measurement wizard, the
R&S ZVH compares the contents of the calibration pool to the measurement
configurations and required calibration methods in the measurement sequence.
● If the R&S ZVH has already been calibrated for a particular configuration, it
restores that data. Another calibration is not necessary.
● If the R&S ZVH has not been calibrated for a particular configuration yet,
calibration becomes necessary. The new calibration data is added to the pool.
Therefore, calibration is necessary only for calibration methods that have not been
used for a particular measurement configuration before.
However, it is recommended to perform calibration on a regular basis to keep
measurements as accurate as possible.
You can delete obsolete calibration data from the folder:
\Public\CalibrationPool.
Measurement sequence
After having successfully calibrated the R&S ZVH, it starts to go through the
measurements that are part of the measurement set. The sequence of measurements
is as defined with R&S ZVHView.
