Side-by-Side referencing method

The side-by-side referencing is used when the two units are at the same location and is
the preferred method for better loss measurement accuracy.
After clicking on Side/Side, the wizard will guide you through three steps:
1
The self reference is used for ORL testing. Connect the jumper from the module
port to the mainframe powermeter and press Ok to start referencing.
See
Figure 125 on page 222
2
The zero ORL reference is necessary for ORL testing. Once the self reference
measurement has been carried out, the Zero ORL adjustment can be performed.
