Calibrate For A Transmission Response Measurement - HP 8712C User Manual

1. Since we are measuring the transmission group delay, a transmission
calibration can be performed to improve accuracy
2.
3.
The instrument prompts you to connect four standards-open, short, load,
and through cable-as shown below.

Open, Short, load Connections
4. Press Measure Standard after connecting each standard.
5. The analyzer will measure each standard and then calculate the new
calibration coefficients. The message "Calibration complete. n will
appear for a few seconds when the analyzer is done calculating the new
error correction array.
6. The calibration may be saved in memory or on a disk for later use if you
wish. See Chapter 6 for information on saving calibrations.
