Command
Types
Device-specific, no query. Use
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:METHod?
to obtain a list of all calibration types for channel <Ch>.
Example:
See
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:SAVE:SELected.
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:SAVE
Calculates the system error correction data from the acquired one or two-port measurement results
(
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect[:ACQuire]),
stores them and applies them to the calibrated
channel <Ch>. To avoid incompatibilities, older system error correction data is deleted unless it has been
transferred into a cal pool (
MMEMory:STORe:CORRection <Ch>, '<file_name>')
.
This command is the ZVR-compatible equivalent of
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:SAVE:SELected
. It must be used in combination with the ZVR-
compatible commands for calibration method and standard selection; see example below.
<Ch>
Channel number of the calibrated channel.
*RST value

SCPI, Command
Types
Confirmed, no query
Example:
CORR:COLL:METH REFL1
Select a one-port normalization at port 1 as calibration type.
CORR:COLL OPEN1
Measure an open standard connected to port 1 and store the measurement
results of this standard.
CORR:COLL:SAVE
Calculate the system error correction data and apply them to the active
channel.
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:SAVE:DEFault
Generates a set of default system error correction data for the selected ports and calibration type. The
default data set corresponds to a test setup which does not introduce any systematic errors; none of the
measurement results acquired previously (
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect[:ACQuire])
is
taken into account.
The main purpose of the default correction data set is to provide a dummy system error correction
which you can replace with your own, external correction data. You may have acquired the external data
in a previous session or even on an other instrument. If you want to use the external correction data on
the analyzer, simply generate the default data set corresponding to your port configuration and calibration
type and overwrite the default data. For details refer to the program example below.
This command must be used in combination with the ZVR-compatible commands
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:METHod and [SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:DATa. Use
[SENSe<Ch>:]CORRection:COLLect:SAVE:SELected:DEFault if you want to use ZVL-specific calibration
commands or if you want to calibrate more than 2 ports.
