All specifications apply over a 23 °C ±5 °C range (unless otherwise stated) and
90 minutes after the instrument has been turned on.
Specifi cation (spec.):
Warranted performance. Specifications include guardbands to account for the
expected statistical performance distribution, measurement uncertainties, and
changes in performance due to environmental conditions.
Supplemental information is intended to provide information that is helpful for
using the instrument but that is not guaranteed by the product warranty.
Typical (typ.):
Describes performance that will be met by a minimum of 80% of all products. It
is not guaranteed by the product warranty.
Supplemental performance data (SPD):
Represents the value of a parameter that is most likely to occur; the expected
mean or average. It is not guaranteed by the product warranty.
General characteristics:
A general, descriptive term that does not imply a level of performance.

• No averaging applied to data
• Environmental temperature of 23 °C ±5 °C, with less than 1 °C deviation from
the calibration temperature
• Response and isolation calibration not omitted

Degradation of some product specifi cations can
occur in the presence of ambient power frequency
magnetic fi elds of 30 A/m or greater.
The product self-recovers and operates as specifi ed when removed or shielded from the ambient
magnetic fi eld.
When the analyzer tuned frequency is identical
to the immunity test signal frequency, there may
be signals of up to −80 dB of full-scale response
displayed on the screen.
Emission of magnetic fi eld may occur at the left
side of the where two cooling fans are installed.
Its magnitude can be as much as 160A/m and
25A/m at 0cm and 1cm apart from the center of
the fan, respectively. It is recommended to have
enough clearance between the cooling fans and
magnetically sensitive device or instruments.

StatisticsCalculates and displays mean, standard deviation
measurement uncertainty due to errors caused
by system directivity, source and load match,
tracking and crosstalk. Full 2-port calibration
removes all the systematic errors for the
related test ports to obtain the most accurate
measurements.
Calibration types available
ResponseSimultaneous magnitude and phase correction of
frequency response errors for either refl ection or
transmission measurements.
Response and isolationCompensates for frequency response and
crosstalk errors of transmission measurements.
Enhanced responseCompensates for frequency response and source
match errors.
One-port calibrationCompensates for directivity, frequency response
and source match errors.
Full 2-port calibrationCompensates for directivity, source match,
refl ection tracking, load match, transmission
tracking and crosstalk. Crosstalk calibration can
be omitted.
Interpolated error correctionWith any type of accuracy enhancement
applied, interpolated mode recalculates the
error coeffi cients when the test frequencies are
changed. The number of points can be increased
or decreased and the start/stop frequencies can
be changed.
Velocity factorEnter the velocity factor to calculate the
equivalent physical length.
Reference port extensionRedefi ne the measurement plane from the plane
where the calibration was done.
