Making Measurements on the PNA
Measuring Electro-Optical Devices on the PNA
Calibrating the E/O measurement

Always perform an electrical calibration of the network
analyzer or load an existing calibration file before you make
a measurement.
For standard measurements, see "Electrical calibration for
single- ended measurements" on page 57.
For balanced measurements, see "Electrical calibration for
balanced measurements" on page 58.
If you make a measurement without this calibration, you will
get an error message.
Before you make your first electro- optical measurement, you
must calibrate the E/O measurement.
If you have already calibrated the E/O measurement, you can
connect your device under test and make the measurement
using the controls on the network analyzer.
Please refer to the user guide and online help for the
network analyzer for further information.
1 If you have been measuring opto- electrical or
optical/optical devices, you must first remove the
correction matrix for the active measurement type (the
active measurement type is shown at the top right of the
trace). You do this by calibrating for an E/E measurement,
as described in "Returning to Electrical Measurements on
the PNA" on page 75).
