The diagram in the "View / Modify Cal Kit Standards" dialog depends on the standard
type for which the dialog was opened. Moreover, it is possible to modify the circuit model
using the buttons in the upper right of the dialog.
Offset Parameters
The entries on the left-hand side specify the offset parameters for the transmission lines
of the selected calibration standard.
The offset parameters depend on whether or not the circuit model is defined in "Agilent
Mode" (see
chapter 4.4.3.6, "Cal Connector Types Dialog"
●
If "Agilent Mode" is active, then the standard is characterized by its "Delay" (in s), its
characteristic impedance Z
0
(in Ω) and its "Offset Loss" (in GΩ).
●
If "Agilent Mode" is switched off, then the standard is characterized by the R&S ZVR-
compatible parameters "Electrical Length" (in m), its "Char. Impedance" (in Ω) and
its "Loss" (in dB/sqrt(GHz)). The loss is zero and not editable as long as the electrical
length is zero.
Both parameter sets are closely related. The "Electrical Length" is proportional to the
"Delay"; Z
0
corresponds to the "Char. Impedance". Moreover the analyzer converts an
Agilent-type "Offset Loss" into a ZVR-type Loss and vice versa using the "Relative Per-
mittivity" ε
r
for the selected connector type.

Load Parameters
The entries on the right-hand side or across the bottom of the "View / Modify Cal Kit
Standards" dialog specify the load parameters for a particular calibration standard
describing its terminal impedance.
