:SENSe{1-16}:CORRection:COLLect:LRL:SINGleton Subsystem – 4-Port VNAs
The :SENSe{1-16}:CORRection:COLLect:LRL:SINGleton subsystem commands provide configuration control of the Line-Reflect-Line calibration using singletons in different configurations. The commands provide control of singleton configuration parameters and output reporting. The use of the :LRL:SINGleton commands require a 4-port VNA instrument.

• Port Pair 1-2 may not be used.
• Port Pair 1-3 with singleton 2 or 4
• Port Pair 1-4 with singleton 2 or 3
• Port Pair 2-3 with singleton 1 or 2
