Verification Procedures
The following steps assume the hardware configuration has been previously
setup for Low Band Verification (< 50 GHz) in
Software Configuration.
1. From the Main Menu select
Verification Menu.
2. Select
to enter serial numbers of system and components.

for frequencies <50 GHz. See
required and suggested calibration storage locations (also refer to the
"Two-Band Calibration Procedure for 8510XF Performance
Verification" art foldout at the end of this chapter).
a. Install the 1.0 mm female to female cable (8.8 cm, part number
11500-60001) onto the right test head (port 2) prior to calibration.
This cable is part of the 85059A 1.0 mm Precision Calibration and
Verification Kit and is considered to be a test port cable.
b. A full two-port calibration is required. A table of calibration
standards required for each frequency range can be found in the
85059A 1.0 mm precision calibration and verification kit manual, or
on the art foldout at the end of this chapter.
Do not remove this test port cable once the Calibration/Verification process
has begun. If the test port cable becomes loose or is removed during the
calibration/verification process, the calibration is invalid.
Do not pull on the connectors on the ends of the test port cable—this will
damage the cable. Avoid damaging the cable once it is connected to port 2
by carefully making the thru connection between the two test heads. This is
best done by placing the two test heads on a smooth surface and gently
sliding the right test head (port 2) towards the left test head (port 1).
