Operation steps of short correction function
The following steps are executing open correction on all frequency points through
interpolation method. The operation method of open correction on single
frequency, please refer to “load correction”.
1)
Move the cursor to the SHORT zone, the following soft keys will be displayed:
ON
OFF
MEAS SHORT
DCR SHORT
2)
Connect the test fixture to the test ports. Short the test fixture by using short
plate.
3)
Press the MEAS SHORT soft key, TX6000 will test the short spurious
impedances (resistance and reactance) of 34 frequencies. Short full
frequency correction takes about 50 seconds and in this process, the
following soft keys will be displayed.
ABORT
This soft key can be used to cancel the current short correction operation and
reserve the formal open correction data.
4)
Press DCR SHORT, TX6000 will test the short resistance under DC resistance
function.
5)
Press ON to validate the short correction function. TX6000 will make short
correction calculation in latter test. If FREQ is set as OFF, the short-circuit
correction data of the current frequency will be calculated by interpolation
method. When FREQ is set as ON, the value of the current test frequency will
be that of FREQ, in this case, the short correction data of FREQ will be used to
the calculation of short correction.
6)
Press OFF to turn off the short correction function. In latter test, no short
correction calculation will be performed.

LOAD
By using transport coefficient between the real test value and the standard
reference value at the preset frequency (FREQ), the load correction of TX6000
can eliminate the test error. It is obvious that open, short, and load correction can
be performed at preset frequencies. The frequency can be set in the setup zones
of FREQ. The standard reference values can be set in the setup zones of REF A
and REF B. The standard test function must be set in the FUNC zone before
setting standard reference value. When the cursor moves to FREQ, the MEAS
LOAD soft key will be displayed. Press MEAS LOAD to perform the load
correction test.
Operation steps for setting load correction
According to the following steps, perform open/ short/ load correction test at
