Calibration

Calibration sets the gain of the power meter using a 50 MHz 1 mW calibrator as a
traceable power reference. The power meter's POWER REF output or a suitable
external reference is used as the signal source for calibration. An essential part of
calibrating is setting the correct reference calibration factor for the power sensor
you are using. The N1913/1914A EPM Series Power Meter User's Guide require
you to set the reference calibration factor. The E-Series power sensors and N8480
Series power sensors (excluding Option CFT) set the reference calibration factor
automatically. During calibration, the wait symbol is displayed. Offset, relative,
and duty cycle settings are ignored during calibration.

calibrator on (if it is not already on), then after calibration, it switches it to the
