By default cal kit files are stored in the C:\R_S\Instr\user\Nwa\Calibration\Kits directory.

To import a ZVL-specific or ZVR-specific cal kit file (*.ck or *.calkit) you can also use the Windows

Explorer and simply double-click the file or drag and drop the file into the NWA application. The imported

cal kit file is automatically set active.

Importing older ZVR cal kit files

On loading some older ZVR-specific *.ck files, e.g. the ZV-Z23 cal kit file, the ZVL generates the

message

File does not comply with instrument calibration kit file format

. The files must be

converted using a ZVR network analyzer equipped with a firmware version V3.52 or higer. Proceed

as follows:

On the ZVR, press

CAL

–

CAL KITS – MODIFY KITS – INSTALL NEW KIT

to import the *.ck

file.

Press

CREATE INST FILE

in the same submenu to export the *.ck file in a ZVL-compatible

format.

Import the converted file into the ZVL.

*.csv cal kit files: VNA Cal Kit Manager 2.1

The

VNA Cal Kit Manager

is a free, Windows-based software tool intended to import, edit, and

export *csv cal kit files. The software is available for download at

http://www.vnahelp.com/products.html. The decimal separator used by the

VNA Cal Kit Manager

V2.1

depends on the language version of the Windows operating system: Cal kit files generated on

an English operating system contain dots, the ones generated on a German system contain

commas.
The network analyzer expects the dot as a separator and displays an error message when a *.csv

file with commas is loaded. Please install the

VNA Cal Kit Manager V2.1

on an appropriate (e.g.

Englisch) Windows version to avoid trouble.

*.prn cal kit files: PNA Cal Kit Editor

The network analyzer can import and process cal kit files created with the

PNA Cal Kit Editor

. The

files use the extension *.prn; the data format is identical to the *.csv format.
The decimal separator used by the

PNA Cal Kit Editor

depends on the language version of the

Windows operating system: Cal kit files generated on an English operating system contain dots,

the ones generated on a German system contain commas.
The network analyzer expects the dot as a separator and displays an error message when a *.prn

file with commas is loaded. Please install the

PNA Cal Kit Editor

on an appropriate (e.g. Englisch)

Windows version to avoid trouble.
