(Read-Write) Sets and returns the x-axis frequencies for the given Cal Set and error term name. This command requires that the error term already be in existence either from a calibration session or having been created with CSET:ETER:DATA. This command requires that the frequency array length match the existing size of the error term. For example, if the error term is 3 buckets long (3 complex numbers), then the frequency list must be 3 values long. |

(String) Name of Cal Set to manipulate. |
<ETerm Name> |
(String) Name used to identify an error term in the Cal Set. |
<freqlist> |

(Write-only) Characterizes a fixture based on two Cal Sets. The stimulus settings of the two Cal Sets do NOT have to be identical, but they MUST have a common frequency range for interpolation. A new S2P file is created. Learn more about Cal Plane Manager. |
|
Parameters |
|
<cs1> |
(String) Name of an existing Cal Set 1 which describes the cal closest to the PNA. The Cal Set must reside on the PNA. |
<cs2> |
(String) Name of an existing Cal Set 2 which describes the cal closest to the DUT. The Cal Set must reside on the PNA. |
<port> |
(Numeric) Port number described in the Cal Sets. |
<s2p> |
(String) Name of the S2P file containing the adapter/fixture characterization. |
<char> |
(Character) Format. Choose from:
|
[<pivot>] |
(Numeric) Optional argument. Phase value for the specified port. |

|
(Write-only) De-embeds a fixture from an existing Cal Set based on an S2P file. A new Cal Set is created with the effects of the fixture removed. When the new Cal Set is applied to a channel, the effects of fixturing are removed from the measurement data. Do NOT enable fixturing. The effects of the fixture are removed when the new Cal Set is selected and correction is turned ON. |
|
Parameters |
|
<cs1> |
(String) Name of an existing Cal Set which resides on the PNA. |
<cs2> |
(String) Name of new Cal Set which contains updated error terms with fixture de-embedded. |
<s2p> |
(String) Name of the S2P file which characterizes the adapter/fixture. |
<port> |
(Numeric) Port number from which fixture will be de-embedded. |
<compPwr> |
(Boolean) ON (1) - When the Cal Set contains a power correction array for the fixture port, that array will be compensated for the fixture loss. Warning: enabling power compensation can result in an increase in test port power and consequently, increased power to the DUT. Use with caution. OFF (0) - Do not compensate for loss in source power through the fixture. |
[extrap] |
(Boolean) Optional argument. ON (1) -Applies a simple extrapolation when the S2P file has a narrower frequency range than the Cal Set. The values for the first and last data points are extended in either direction to cover the frequency range of the Cal Set. OFF (0) - Extrapolation is NOT performed (default setting). |
Examples |
CSET:FIXT:DEEM "MyCalSet","MyNewCalSet","Fixture.s2p",1,1 cset:fixture:deembed "MyCalSet","MyNewCalSet","Fixture.s2p",1,1,1 'extrapolation is performed if the s2p frequency range is narrower than that of the Cal Set. |

|
(Write-only) Embeds a fixture (usually a matching network) into an existing Cal Set based on an S2P file. A new Cal Set is created with the effects of the matching network included in the correction data. When the new Cal Set is applied to a channel, the effects of the fixture are included in the measurement data. Do NOT enable fixturing. The effects of the matching network are included when the new Cal Set is selected and correction is turned ON. |
|
Parameters |
|
<cs1> |
(String) Name of an existing Cal Set which resides on the PNA. |
<cs2> |
(String) Name of new Cal Set which contains updated error terms with fixture embedded. |
<s2p> |
(String) Name of the S2P file which characterizes the fixture / matching network. |
<port> |
(Numeric) Port number to which fixture will be added. |
<compPwr> |
(Boolean) ON (1) - Increase the source power to compensate for the loss through the fixture. The result is that the specified power level will be correct at the DUT input. Warning: enabling power compensation can result in an increase in test port power and consequently, increased power to the DUT. Use with caution. OFF (0) - Do not compensate for loss in source power through the matching network. |
[extrap] |
(Boolean) Optional argument. ON (1) -Applies a simple extrapolation when the S2P file has a narrower frequency range than the Cal Set. The values for the first and last data points are extended in either direction to cover the frequency range of the Cal Set. OFF (0) - Extrapolation is NOT performed (default setting). |
