Calibration for NA, CAT, and VVM Modes
Interpolated Calibrations are only slightly less accurate than a calibration
performed at the measurement settings. Learn more about the relative
accuracy of FieldFox calibrations in
page
When a calibration that you performed is being interpolated, an asterisk is
added to the Cal annotation. For example:
when the current Response or Mechanical cal is being interpolated. An
never added to a CalRdy.
Cal ON ? – Questionable Accuracy
When the Output Power, Interference Rejection, or IF BW (NA Mode ONLY)
setting is changed AFTER performing a calibration, a question mark is added to
the Cal annotation. For example:
current QuickCal is being interpolated. A
The resulting measurement accuracy depends on how much the setting has
changed. For highest accuracy, recalibrate using the new settings.
Compatible Mode Calibrations
The FieldFox can have only ONE calibration present for all modes. Because NA,
CAT, and VVM modes are very similar, a calibration that is performed in one
mode can also be applied in the other modes with the same type of
measurements (1-port or 2-port).
To apply a Cal that was performed in a different mode, press Cal 5 then select
Cal
Save the Calibration
After performing any type of calibration, you can save the FieldFox settings
along with the calibration into a STATE (*.sta) file. These settings and
calibration can then be recalled as necessary. To learn how, see
Recalling Files" on page
CalReady Properties
There are several factory calibrations (CalReady) on every FieldFox. These can
be selected based on the type of DUT that you measure most often, and the
compromise that you prefer to make between measurement speed versus
measurement accuracy. Remember, CalReady was performed at the test ports.
Therefore, a CalReady calibration is most accurate when the DUT is directly
connected to the test ports. Learn more in
