After calibrating test set ports, use a quality load and short to verify the calibration on each
port or end of the test cable. Measure reflection and confirm the return loss is as expected. If
the result is not as expected, repeat the calibration without the test set and ensure that the
analyzer is in standard (non-multiport) mode.
If measurement errors occur, ensure the newest version of firmware is
installed on the PNA. Measurement errors can be a result of firmware
algorithms. Consult with Keysight Service or firmware web page for
the latest PNA firmware revisions and history.
