Controlling the System with E8363/4C and N5230C

Sweep Setup for Multiport and Standalone PNA Modes 

When the Test Set is connected to the PNA, it is recommended that the analyzer’s Sweep 
Setup be configured to Stepped Sweep before calibrating. This is slower than the Analog 
Sweep, but is more accurate due to the extra electrical length of the Test Set and test port 
cables. Only Stepped Sweep is available on all PNA models. 

1. On the PNA select
