Verification Results Files
When System Verification is configured as recommended, the process produces five files - one text file and
four .png files. The text file contains model numbers and serial numbers of the PNA and 85059A kit, along
with tabular lists of all results. The other files are screen captures of the magnitude and phase traces for
each verification device. All file names contain the date and time of the system verification.
Refer to the example screen captures in Figure 6-5, Figure 6-6, Figure 6-7, and Figure 6-8. The windows are
labeled 1, 2, 3, and 4. Window 1 is S
11
, window 2 is S
21
, window 3 is S
12
, and trace 4 is S
22
. Two traces are
shown for each measurement - a black trace and a colored trace. The black traces represent the factory
measured data for the verification devices. The colored traces represent the actual measured data from the
calibrated system.
