The following keystrokes are examples for entering the first two
calibration factor data points for the 8482A power sensor (assuming CF%
= 96.4 at 100 kHz and CF% = 98.4 at 300 kHz):
1. From the Sensor Calibration Factor Entries menu, press ADD.
2. Press FREQUENCY, 100, k/m. If you make an entry error,
press ← and re-enter the correct value again.
3. Press CAL FACTOR, 96.4, x1.
4. Press DONE to terminate the first calibration factor data point entry.
5. To enter the second cal factor data point, press ADD.
6. Press FREQUENCY, 300, k/m.
7. Press CAL FACTOR, 98.4, x1.
8. To terminate the second calibration factor data point entry, press
DONE.
9. Press SEGMENT and use the front panel knob to scroll through the
sensor calibration factors table. Check to be sure all values are
entered correctly. If you spot an error, use the front panel knob to
point to the data point you want to modify and press EDIT.
10.Press the appropriate softkeys to create a power sensor calibration
factors table.
11.Press DONE to exit the sensor calibration factor entries menu.
12.Press RETURN, ONE SWEEP, TAKE CAL SWEEP to start the power
meter calibration.
Wait until the analyzer finishes the sweep, then continue with this
procedure.
NOTE The analyzer displays the PC annotation indicating the power meter
calibration is done and the error correction is active.
