Calibration Overview
Complete Calibration Summary
Offset Zero Calibration
Vertical offset is
calibrated for the
optical channel only.
This calibration
doesn’t include
vertical scale
accuracy.
Channels affected:
optical. Any optical
vertical measurements
including: Vp to p, eye
height, and extinction
ratio.
Perform a plug-in
vertical calibration in
order to meet
published
specifications.
Because the offset
zero calibration
performs only the
offset portion of the
plug-in vertical
calibration, it should
only be used before
fast non-critical
measurements.
Optical Channel Setup

Offset 0
Dark Calibration
Dark calibration
measures the channel
offset signal without
any light present and
this value is used in
the extinction ratio
algorithm.
Channels affected:
optical & electrical.
Extinction ratio.
Before extinction ratio
measurements if the
vertical scale or offset
has changed since the
last dark calibration or
after a plug-in vertical
calibration is
performed.
Shift, Meas eye

Probe calibration
Probe Attenuation
Channels affected:
electrical. Any
electrical
measurement taken
with the probe
Whenever a probe is
connected

Channel Skew
Calibrates out the
small differences in
delay between
channels. Useful for
looking at timing
differences between
channels
Channels affected:
optical & electrical.
Multiple channel
measurements.
Before multiple
channel
measurements when
measuring timing
differences between
channels.

Skew
External Scale
Compensates for gain
or loss associated
with external devices
(calibrates vertical
scale to external
device
Channels affected:
optical & electrical.
Any measurement
taken through an
external device
(component or
transducer)
Whenever using
external devices
(component or
transducer)
