Calibration Initialize
Description
Shift‑2 (Calibrate), Configure DUT User,Short Initiates the calibration process. This command must be issue before sending Open, Short, or Load commands. Use the query command [:SENSe]:CORRection:COLLect:STATus? to check if initialization has completed and that the next calibrate step can be proceeded.
Notes:
1. Once the calibration sequence has been initialized remotely, calibration steps must be completed remotely. To exit the calibration sequence before it is completed use the ABORt command.
2. During calibration Data Points is set to 551. Set to desired Data Points value after calibration is completed.

Title
Calibration Load
Description
Starts the Load calibration measurement. This is the last calibration step for 1-Port (OSL) calibration. Note that the Calibration Short process must be completed before calling this command. You must also connect the Load to the RF Out port (or to the end of the test port extension cable) prior to issuing this command. Use the query command [:SENSe]:CORRection:COLLect:STATus? to check if the Load calibration measurement has completed and that the next calibrate step can be proceeded.

Calibration Open
Description
Starts the Open calibration measurement. This is the first calibration step for the 1-Port (Open-Short-Load) calibration. Note that the initialize step [:SENS]:CORR:COLL:INIT must be completed before calling this command. Note that you must connect the Open to the RF Out port (or to the end of the test port extension cable) before issuing this command. Use the query command [:SENSe]:CORRection:COLLect:STATus? to check if the Open calibration measurement has completed and that the next calibrate step can be proceeded.

Calibration Short
Description
Starts the Short calibration measurement. This is the second calibration step for the 1-Port (Open-Short-Load) calibration. Note that the Calibration Open process must be completed before calling this command. You must also connect the Short to the RF Out port (or to the end of the test port extension cable) before issuing this command. Use the query command [:SENSe]:CORRection:COLLect:STATus? to check if the Short calibration measurement has completed and that the next calibrate step can be proceeded.

Title
Calibration Status
Description
This command requests information about the current calibration step or the specified calibration step. If no calibration step is specified, then it returns a 1 if the current calibration step has completed, otherwise it returns a 0. If INITialized is specified, then the command returns a 1 if the Initialize step has completed and returns a 0 if it has not been completed. If OPEN is specified, then the command returns a 1 if the Open step has completed and returns a 0 if it has not been completed. If SHORt is specified, then the command returns a 1 if the Short step has completed and returns a 0 if it has not been completed. If LOAD is specified, then the command returns a 1 if the Load step has completed and returns a 0 if it has not been completed.

[:SENSe]:FREQuency:SIGStandard:NAMe?
Title
Signal Standard
Description
Selects the desired signal standard from the list. The <string> argument is the name of the desired signal standard as displayed in the instrument’s current signal standard list. The list can be displayed on the instrument by choosing the Signal Standard submenu button in the Freq menu and then pressing the Select Standard submenu button in the Signal Standard menu. The list can also be downloaded remotely and viewed using Anritsu Master Software Tools. For example, if the desired Signal Standard is P-GSM 900(A), then the value of the <string> argument would be “P-GSM 900(A)”.
To select Uplink / Downlink / Uplink plus Downlink, use the command [:SENSe]:FREQuency:LINK.
The query form of this command will return the name of the currently selected signal.
