Introduction
This chapter describes some of the VNA measurements that can be made with the VNA Master. It includes both 1-port and 2-port measurements (coaxial and waveguide) and features the key considerations that you are required to make regarding calibration types, IF Bandwidth (IFBW), power levels, graph types, and graph formats.
This chapter describes the VNA Measurements view. Field Measurements describes the Field Measurements view.
As stated in the first chapter of this manual, all references to Vector Network Analyzer and references to instruments that are two‑port, 1‑path vector network analyzers include both the MS20xxB compact VNA Master and the S412E LMR Master models.
Select Measurement Type – VNA versus Field
Change between the Field Measurements view and the VNA Measurements view by pressing the Shift key followed by the System (8) key, and then by pressing the Applications Options soft key (submenu key). Press the Meas Menu soft key to toggle between Field and VNA.
