8. To measure the standard, when the displayed trace has settled, press:
NOTE If the calibration kit that you selected has a choice between male or female
calibration standards, remember to select the sex that applies to the test port
and not the standard.
The analyzer displays WAIT - MEASURING CAL STANDARD during the standard
measurement. The analyzer underlines the softkey after it measures the
calibration standard.
9. Disconnect the open, and connect a short circuit to the test port.
10.To measure the standard when the displayed trace has settled, press:
The analyzer measures the short circuit and underlines the softkey.
11.Disconnect the short, and connect an impedance-matched load to the test port.
12.When the displayed trace has settled, press:
, select the type of load you are using, and then press when
the analyzer has finished measuring the load.
Notice that the softkey is now underlined.
