for the SHORT standard (25 W) into the Short_u_lim variable.
NOTE The sample program sets the R
dc
limits for each standard by assuming only typical uses: a
lower limit of 100 W for the OPEN standard, an upper limit of 25 W for the SHORT
standard, and no limits for the LOAD standard. To gain more effective protection against
operational errors, however, it is recommended that you modify these values based on your
actual working standards; for more information, refer to “Preventing operational errors
when measuring data for calculating calibration coefficients” on page 40.
Lines 420 to 430 Stores the lower and upper limits (-10 W and 10 W) for the R
dc
measurement for conduct check into the Rdc_l_lim and Rdc_u_lim
variables, respectively.
Lines 470 to 480 Stores the maximum sorting condition number (4) into the Max_cond
variable and the maximum bin number (6) into the Max_bin variable.
Line 490 Stores the maximum good bin number (2) into the Ogbin variable.
Lines 500 to 1420 Stores sorting condition settings into the corresponding variables to
configure the sorting conditions for each bin as follows:
Lines 1460 to 1470 Resets the instrument and sets the data transfer format to ASCII.
Lines 1480 to 1490 Sets the active table number to Act_tab and the unit of the signal
source level to Unit$.
Lines 1500 to 1540 Configures the measurement point setup table.
Line 1550 Turns on list measurement.
Lines 1560 to 1570 Turns on R
dc
measurement and sets the limit range for R
dc
measurement to the range between Rdc_l_lim and Rdc_u_lim.
Lines 1580 to 1610 Assigns the bin sorting parameters (Para$(1) and Para$(2)) to
measurement parameters 1 and 2 and hides the results for
measurement parameters 3 and 4.
Line 1620 to 1640 Turns off the screen display and beep.
Line 1650 to 1670 Locks the front panel, keyboard, and mouse.
Line 1710 to 1730 Configures the instrument to use the user-defined calibration kit with
100 MHz 800 MHz
