Receiver Adjustment

The receiver calibration is used to adjust the network analyzer receivers for a
flat response across its full frequency range:
1. A power meter/sensor is connected to Port 1, as shown in
2. A cable is inserted between the power sensor and the test port, as shown
3. The same cable is connected between test port 1 and test port 2, as
Data obtained during this adjustment are stored in the mxcalfile_pxx files in
flash memory on the test set motherboard, with a backup copy stored on the
hard disk drive. The data are used in subsequent measurements.
Solid state drives can be swapped or replaced without concern for the
mxcalfile_pxx files. If the test set motherboard is replaced, the PNA firmware
will automatically create new primary mxcalfile_pxx files from the backup
copies on the hard drive.
These files can be recreated by performing another receiver calibration
adjustment.
