E4990A/E4980A/AL with 16452A

Note: Refer to the 16452A users guide for detailed information about typical air capacitance value (Step 2 below) and how to check the residual short value.

Step 1

HRESULT Open()

Or

HRESULT AdapterSetup()

Step 2

HRESULT ShortCompensation()

Step 3

When completed, click on the Finish button.

  

 

E4991B with 16453A

Calibration steps can be done in any order.

Step 1

While pulling up on the knob, press the latch button then release the knob. The knob should remain in the up position.

HRESULT Open()

Or

HRESULT AdapterSetup()

Step 2

Release the latch button so that the upper electrode makes contact with the lower electrode.

HRESULT Short()

Or

HRESULT AdapterSetupShort()

Step 3

  1. Place the fixture in the OPEN state.

  2. Use tweezers to carefully place the load standard on the lower electrode.

  3. Ensure that the load standard only comes into contact with the electrodes of the fixture.

  4. Pull up on the knob to release the latch button then slowly lower the top electrode onto the load.

  5. Push down on the knob to stabilize the contact.

  6. Turn the pressure adjusting nut so that the pressure is maximized without deforming the load material

HRESULT Load()

Step 4

When completed, click on the Done button.
