There are also ten sensor calibration tables named CUSTOM_0 through CUSTOM_9
which do not contain any data when the power meter is shipped from the factory.
You cannot delete any of the 20 sensor calibration tables. Each sensor calibration
table can contain a maximum of 80 frequency points each. If you want a new sensor
calibration table you must edit an existing one.
To edit a table:
1. Select one using the
tables. When the table you want to edit is highlighted press
The "Edit Cal" screen is displayed as shown in Figure 2-5 on page 2-21. In
this screen you can modify, add and remove frequency and calibration
factors and also edit the table name. Use the
hardkeys to move between the table name and its frequency and calibration
factors.
A frequency in the range of 0.001 MHz to 999.999 GHz can be entered.
A calibration factor in the range of 1% to 150% can be entered.
The following rules apply to naming sensor calibration tables:
The name must consist of no more than 12 characters.
n
All characters must be upper or lower case alphabetic characters, or
n
numeric (0-9), or an underscore (_).
No other characters are allowed.
n
1. DEFAULT is a sensor calibration table in which the reference calibration factor and
calibration factors are 100%. This sensor calibration table can be used during the
performance testing of the power meter.
2. The Agilent 8482B and Agilent 8482H power sensors use the same data as the Agilent
8482A.
