Figure 6-12: Calibration Unit wizard, step 1: Ports (> 4 test ports)
Ports
Selects the test ports to be calibrated.
Note:
Calibration and port de-/activation.
The way the analyzer fimware activates/deactivates ports after a successfull calibration
(system error correction or power calibration) has slightly changed:
●
In all FW releases, calibrated ports that were previously disabled, are automatically
enabled as single-ended logical ports.
●
Starting with FW version 2.10, uncalibrated ports were disabled in the related
channel(s). If only one of the physical ports forming a balanced port was calibrated,
the balanced port was dissolved and only the uncalibrated (single-ended) port was
disabled.
In earlier FW versions there was no such port deactivation mechanism.
●
Since FW version 2.40 an uncalibrated port is only disabled if it is not used by a
measurement, i.e. if it is not required by any trace of the related channel.
Remote command:
The port parameters in many calibration commands define the calibrated ports.
Cal Unit
Displays the connected calibration units. The R&S
ZNB/ZNBT auto-detects all calibra-
tion units which are connected to one of its USB ports. If several cal units are connec-
ted, one of them must be selected for calibration (active cal unit). A warning is dis-
played if the current sweep range of the network analyzer exceeds the characterized
frequency range of the calibration unit.
