Basic Operations for RF Devices Measurement
STEP 3. Calibration
Measuring SHORT Calibration Data
Use the 0 Ω (SHORT) standard to perform SHORT calibration by following these steps.
Step 1. Turn the 0 Ω (SHORT) standard clockwise with the provided torque wrench to connect it
securely to the 7-mm terminal (Figure 3-33).
Step 2. Press the
or
the
key (Figure 3-34).
Step 3. A √ mark appears on the left side of the
SHORT calibration data measurement.
Step 4. Turn the 0 Ω (SHORT) standard counterclockwise to remove it.
Measuring LOAD Calibration Data
Use the 50 Ω (LOAD) standard to perform LOAD calibration by following these steps.
Step 1. Turn the outside connector nut of the 50 Ω (LOAD) standard counterclockwise to fully
retract the inside connector sleeve (Figure 3-35).
Step 2. Turn the 50 Ω (LOAD) standard clockwise with the provided torque wrench to connect it
securely to the 7-mm terminal (Figure 3-36).
Step 3. Press the
or
the
key (Figure 3-37).
Step 4. A √ mark appears on the left side of the
calibration data measurement.
Step 5. Turn the 50 Ω (LOAD) standard counterclockwise to remove it.
Measuring LOW-LOSS CAPACITOR Calibration data
The LOW-LOSS CAPACITOR calibration should be performed for high Q (or low D:
dissipation factor) measurements at high frequencies. The LOW-LOSS CAPACITOR
calibration allows high accuracy for phase measurements. This calibration can be skipped
if you do not need it for your purposes.
Step 1. Turn the LOW-LOSS CAPACITOR clockwise with the provided torque wrench to connect
it securely to the 7-mm terminal (Figure 3-38).
Step 2. Press the
or
press the
key (Figure 3-39).
Step 3. A √ mark appears on the left side of the
LOW-LOSS CAPACITOR calibration data measurement.
Step 4. Turn the LOW-LOSS CAPACITOR counterclockwise to remove it.
