5.3.1 Performing Measurements
This chapter takes you through a sample session with a R&S ZNL/ZNLE network ana-
lyzer and describes basic operation tasks.
Safety considerations
Before starting any measurement on your network analyzer, please note the instruc-
tions given in
Chapter 5.1.1, "Putting into Operation" , on page 20.
Use the "S-Parameter Wizard" accessible via [Meas] > "S-Params" > "S-Param Wiz-
ard..." to measure S-parameters in a straightforward way. The wizard provides a series
of dialogs where you can select the test setup, screen configuration and measurement
parameters, configure the essential channel settings and perform a guided calibration.
Measurement stages in the wizard
The individual dialogs of the "S-Parameter Wizard" correspond to the typical stages of
any measurement:
1. Select the test setup.
2. Define port impedances.
3. Select the measurement parameters and the diagrams.
4. Define the sweep range.
5. Adjust the receiver and source settings (measurement bandwidth, source power).
6. Perform a calibration.
5.3.1.1 Transmission S-Parameter Measurement
