TX6000 Series Operation Manual Ver1.4

Open, short and load correction on the <CORRECTION> page can be used to
eliminate the distribution capacitance, spurious impedance and other
measurement errors. TX6000 provides two correction modes: the first one is
executing open and short correction on all frequency points through interpolation
method; the other one is executing open, short and load correction on the
frequency point currently set. There are 201 calibration spots. The following
measurement control parameters can be set on the <CORRECTION> page.
Open correction (OPEN)
Short correction (SHORT)
Load correction (LOAD)
Cable length selection (CABLE)
Single/ multiple correction mode selection (MODE)
Load correction test function (FUNC)
Calibration spot numbers (SPOT No.)
Frequency points of OPEN, SHOR and LOAD (FREQ)
Reference values for 2 frequency points of load correction ( REF A, REF B)
There are 16 zones on this page: Correction, Open, Short, Load, Cable, Mode,
Function, SPOT No., FREQ, REF A, REF B, OPEN A, OPEN B, SHORT A,
SHORT B, LOAD A, LOAD B .Each control function zone will be introduced in the
following paragraphs.
Besides above setting zones, the <CORRECTION> page will also display the
following monitoring zones. The monitoring zones are similar with the setting
zones, but the monitoring zones can only provide reference information and you
cannot change state or parameter of these zones.
Real test results of the open correction (OPEN A, OPEN B)
Real test results of the short correction (SHORT A, SHORT B)
Real test results of the load correction (LOAD A, LOAD B)
