Editing/Generating Sensor Calibration Tables

To help achieve the best accuracy in your measurement you can enter the

values supplied for the sensors you are using by editing the installed

sensor calibration tables or by generating your own custom tables.

You cannot delete any of the 20 existing calibration tables or create any

additional tables. However, you can edit or delete the content of each

table. If you need another table you should edit and rename one of the

tables. Each calibration table can contain a maximum of 80 frequency

points.

To view the calibration tables currently stored in the power meter, press

, , . The Sensor Tbls screen is displayed as

shown in Figure 6- 8.

Table 6 - 3 Installed power sensor models

DEFAULT is a sensor calibration table where the reference calibration factor and calibration

factors are 100%. This sensor calibration table can be used during the performance testing of the

power meter.

NOTE

Predefined sensor calibration factor table stored in power meter is not applicable for

Agilent N8480 Series power sensors with Option CFT. Therefore, users are required to

create a new sensor calibration table for the sensors when a sensor calibration table is

needed.
