2. DUT connection terminal used as calibration reference plane

When you want to use the DUT connection terminal as a calibration reference plane,
connect the working standard to the DUT connection terminal to perform open/short/load
calibration (Table 6-6). No other calibration compensation is necessary.

reference plane
Required calibration
Open/short/load calibration
*1. Perform DC open/short/load calibration as required.
*2. Use the Agilent 4287A option 004 (working standard set). Open calibration and short calibration can be made by
opening or shorting between DUTs; it is not necessary to use a special standard that has the same shape as the
DUT.
1. How to check and change calibration kit definition
Check the definition of the working standard to be used and change it as required as
described in "How to Define Calibration Kit" on page 145.
2. How to select the measurement point table
To perform calibration data measurement for only one of the eight measurement point
tables, follow these steps to select the active table.
NOTE
When performing calibration data measurement for all of the measurement point tables at
once, it is not necessary to select individual measurement point tables.
Step 1. Press the
Step 2. Press the
menu.
Step 3. In the softkey menu, press the key (
measurement point table for which calibration data measurement should be performed.
