Step 3. When menu C11A (left) appears, move the cursor to
the following:
a. SOLT (STANDARD), then press the Enter key.
This selects Standard (SOLT) as the calibration
method.
b. COAXIAL, then press the Enter key. This se-
lects coaxial transmission line media.
c. NEXT CAL STEP, then press the Enter key.
This causes menu C11 to return to the screen.
Step 4. When menu C11 reappears, confirm that the SOLT
calibration method and COAXIAL line type have
been selected. Select NEXT CAL STEP and press
the Enter key to proceed. This brings up menu C5.
Step 5. Menu C5 (left) lets you select the type of calibration.
For this example, move the cursor to FULL
12-TERM and press the Enter key. This selection cal-
ibrates for all twelve error terms.
Step 6. The next menu, C5D, lets you choose whether to in-
clude or exclude the error terms associated with
leakage between measurement channels. For a nor-
mal calibration, you would choose to include these
error terms. Therefore, move the cursor to IN-
CLUDE ISOLATION ( STANDARD ) and press
the Enter key.
