Calibration for NA, CAT, and VVM Modes
the data stored within the memory of the ECal module. The FieldFox uses this
stored data, along with the measured data, to calculate the error terms for a
measurement calibration.
You can perform the following calibrations with ECal:
— 1-Port Reflection calibration
— Full 2-Port calibration
All Keysight USB ECal modules are supported. ECal modules are available in a
variety of connector types, covering many frequency ranges. For information
about available ECal modules, see
http://www.keysight.com/find/ecal
Select an ECal module that has connectors of the same type and gender as the
DUT. If such an ECal module is not available, a module with connectors
different from the DUT can be used by selecting a User Characterization. This
selection is located on the Mechanical Cal Setup page of the CalWizard.
However, a User Characterization can NOT be PERFORMED using the
FieldFox. It must be performed using a bench top Keysight VNA, such as the
PNA or ENA. Learn more about User Characterization at the PNA Help website:

How to Perform a Calibration Using ECal
— Make measurement settings on the FieldFox (frequency range, number of
points, etc.)
— Connect the ECal module USB cable to the FieldFox USB.
— Allow the module to warm up until it indicates READY. This may take several
minutes.
— Connect the ECal module ports to the FieldFox at the calibration reference
plane (where the DUT will be connected).
— Press
Cal 5
to start the Calibration.
— Press
Mechanical Cal / ECal
— Press
Change DUT Connectors
. For each test port to be calibrated, select
the
Connector Type
and
Gender
of the DUT / ECal module. The connected
ECal module and relevant User Characterizations will appear, with the ECal
factory default as the default Cal Kit.
— Optionally press
Advanced
then
ECal Auto Orient
.
—
ON
(default) The FieldFox automatically senses the direction in which
the ECal module ports are connected to the FieldFox ports.
The frequency range of the measurement MUST be within the frequency
range of the ECal module or an error will appear when “Calculating Steps”
during the calibration.
