Tests, Adjustments, and Troubleshooting
System Verification
Cable Substitution
The test port cables specified for the network analyzer system have been
characterized for connector repeatability, magnitude and phase stability with
flexing, return loss, insertion loss, and aging rate. Since test port cable
performance is a significant contributor to the system performance, cables of
lower performance will increase the uncertainty of your measurement. Refer to
the plots in the cable tests (earlier in this chapter) that show the performance
of good cables. It is highly recommended that the test port cables be regularly
tested.
If the system verification is performed with a non-Keysight cable, ensure that
the cable meets or exceeds the specifications for the test cable specified in
Table 2-1. Refer to the cable's user's guide for specifications.
Kit Substitution
Non-Keysight calibration kits and verification kits are not recommended nor
supported.
System Verification Procedure
1. If you want printed test outputs, connect a printer to the embedded or
remote controller. For the printer, ensure that the correct driver is loaded
and the printer is defined as the default printer. Refer to the network
analyzer's Help system for information on printer setup.
2. Let the analyzer warm up for at least 15 minutes.
3. Insert the verification kit memory stick in a USB port of the embedded or
remote controller.
4. Click Utility > System > Service > System Verification. The System
Verification dialog box is displayed, as shown in
2-24
Figure 2-9.
