View Cal - Keysight N9923A FieldFox User Manual

Normalize uses a THRU standard or cable between port 1 and port 2 to cal an S21
and S12 Transmission measurement (NA Mode) and a 2-port Insertion Loss
measurement (CAT Mode). In VVM Mode, this is performed using Zero.
How to perform a Response Cal
 Select the measurements to be calibrated. See the relevant Mode (NA, CAT, or
 Press Cal 5 then
 For 1-port measurements:
 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.
