5 Always perform a
measurement calibration
on the network analyzer
prior to making device
measurements.
a Prior to making device measurements,
complete the steps listed in “Performing a
Coaxial System Measurement
Calibration"
on page 115.
b Ensure that the calibration kit elements are
seated correctly and firmly in the test set
cable connectors.
• See “Understanding System
Measurement Calibration" on page 114
for more information.
• Use the Agilent 85056A 2.4 mm
precision calibration kit.
• Use the Agilent 85056D 2.4 mm
economy calibration kit.
• Use the Agilent 85033E 3.5 mm
economy calibration kit.
• Use the Agilent 85052D 3.5 mm
economy calibration kit.
• Torque measurement connections
using the torque wrench provided in
the calibration kit.
6 Calibrate the system
components at regular
intervals.
a Every 6 to 12 months:
• Perform the required Agilent E8364B
PNA Series vector network analyzer
performance verification tests.
• Perform the required Agilent 4156C
precision semiconductor parameter
analyzer performance verification tests.
• Perform the required Agilent 4248A
precision LCR meter performance
verification tests.
• Perform the required Agilent E5250A low
leakage switch mainframe performance
verification tests.
