View Cal; Calibration Type - Agilent Technologies FieldFox N9913A User Manual

 For 2-port measurements:
NOTE With a Normalization Cal, all subsequent insertion loss measurements are made
relative to the insertion loss of the THRU cable. For example, if you use a cable
with 1 dB of loss, then after Normalization, the display will show 0 dB of loss
with this cable in place. Therefore, for highest accuracy, when measuring the
DUT also attach the cable that was used in the normalization cal.
 Press Finish.
 Connect the DUT.

From the Choose Calibration screen (page 64), press
following screen:
The top box shows the properties of the current calibration that you performed
and the displayed S-parameters that it is correcting.
The bottom box shows the S-parameters that are displayed but NOT corrected by
the current performed calibration, but rather the CalReady calibration. Learn
more about CalReady on page 63.

Calibration Type

The FieldFox simplifies the calibration process by recommending the most
accurate and efficient calibration type based on the displayed S-parameters.
However, there may be times when you may want a little more accuracy or a
little faster sweep time. The following information can help you learn about the
various calibration choices.
