•
For additional information, please refer to "Optimize a measurement"
and "Calibrate a measurement" in the documentation of the network
analyzer.
To ensure the specified performance of the LCA, you need to perform a full
two-port electrical calibration.
When in EO measurement mode, you need to return to EE measurement
NOTE
mode first before you can perform an electrical calibration.
Calibrate before you start using the Lightwave Component Analyzer
application. Alternatively, return to EE measurement mode, as described in
Returning to Electrical Measurements
calibrating the Lightwave Component Analyzer using calibration kit, follow
these steps:
1
Set your measurement parameters.
2
From the "Calibration" menu, select "Other Cals" -> "Smart Cal".
3
Select "2 Port Cal".
4
On two-port network analyzers, select port 2 as "selected 2nd port".
On 4-port network analyzers, select port 4 as "selected 2nd port". If
you plan to use other ports for your measurements, select them for the
calibration and later in the LCA software port configuration window.
For more information, refer to
5
Follow the instruction for further steps shown on the Network
Analyzer.
6
After the calibration has been completed, save the calibration file.
It is recommended to use the 6 mm and 14 mm torque wrenches
NOTE
(Keysight part number 8710-2812 and 8710-2813, 45 N-cm/4 lb-in)
and a 12mm wrench to tighten all RF connections during the calibration.
