RCal Software – Calibration and Application 

RCal Software – Calibration and Application

Running a Calibration

Once the desired measurement state(s) have been configured, select the states to calibrate by 

clicking/tapping on each state’s 

Calibrate

 check box to select.

After selecting the states for calibration, select the 

Calibrate Checked Rows

 button on the left 

panel. You should see the following message:

After ensuring that the RCal module is connected to the signal path, select 

OK

 to start the 

calibration.

The following is a brief summary of what occurs during the calibration process:

— The RCal configuration software automatically prepares the signal analyzer to control the RCal 

module for the calibration process.

— The signal analyzer reads relevant factory calibration data from the RCal module to prepare for 

corrections.

— The signal analyzer makes measurements and calculates the difference between expected and 

actual measurements.

— The differences are stored as corrections to be applied to a later measurement.

Calibrations involving multiple states take longer to execute.
