Calibration and Compensation
Calibration and Compensation Procedures Using Dedicated Test Fixture
18. How to measure short compensation data
Follow these steps to measure the short compensation data.
Step 1. Set the DUT connection terminal of the dedicated test fixture to the short state. For how to
set it to the short state, see the Operation Manual of the test fixture to be used.
Step 2. Click the SHORT button in the compensation window and measure the short compensation
data.
19. How to measure DC open/short compensation data
Follow these steps to perform open/short compensation specifically for DC resistance
(Rdc) measurement:
Step 1. Set the DUT connection terminal of the dedicated test fixture to the open state.
Step 2. Click the DC OPEN button in the compensation window and measure the open
compensation data.
Step 3. Set the DUT connection terminal of the test fixture to the short state.
Step 4. Click the DC SHORT button in the compensation window and measure the short
compensation data.
20. Specifying creation of automatic setting file for when power is turned ON
The setting conditions of the 4287A, including calibration data and compensation data, can
be automatically stored for reuse in a file named “autorec.sta” in the internal nonvolatile
memory. To use this function, click the
Auto Recall check box upon completion of
compensation so that the check mark (
√) appears.
NOTE When the 4287A is turned ON, it searches the internal nonvolatile memory for a file called
“autorec.sta,” and if it is found, the setting conditions (including calibration and
compensation data) stored in the file are automatically recalled.
21. How to end compensation
Press the Done button in the Compensation Dialog box to end compensation and close the
dialog box.
