Operation
This chapter describes preparations and fixture compensation when using the
16196A/B/C/D to take measurements as well as DUT connection and
measuring methods.
Flow of Measurements
Follow the steps below when performing measurements of DUTs with the
16196A/B/C/D.
1. Selecting and Changing the Insulator Assembly
2. Setting the Electrical Length
3. Performing Fixture Compensation
4. Connecting and Measuring the DUT
Settings of the electrical length and fixture compensation differ depending on
the measuring instrument used. Refer to the Operation Manual for the
measuring instrument that you are using.
The 16196A/B/C/D requires frequent wear checks to keep the best
measurement accuracy. When the equipment is used for the first time
following purchase or part replacement, "Wear Check" should be
conducted. Refer to
Select an insulator assembly that is appropriate for the shape of the
measured DUT and replace the insulator assembly in the fixture.
Set the fixture's electrical length in the measuring instrument you will be
using.
Measure the data for open compensation and measure the data for short
compensation. When performing measurements with higher precision,
carry out "Fixture compensation for higher precision measurements".
Connect the DUT and perform measurements.
