These settings are on a per-system basis.

The default state is OFF where frequency values are displayed on the main display and on all menus, buttons, and dialogs. Select changes the button state to ON, and replaces all frequency displays with “Xs” as “XXXX” which includes all frequency displays on all buttons, menus, and dialogs such as all MARKER [1] menu frequency displays. To return all frequency displays, do one of the following:

Select toggles the IFBW enhancer function OFF and ON.

If the IFBW enhancer function is ON:

Select toggles the factory RF calibration OFF and ON.

Select toggles the factory receiver calibration OFF and ON.

Select displays the AutoCal Characterization menu.

Select displays the Touch Screen Control Panel dialog box.

This setting is on a per-channel basis.

Select toggles gain ranging between AUTO and MANUAL.

Active only when Gain Ranging set to MANUAL. Select opens Gain Selection menu.

The best practice recommendation is to return the AutoCal module to Anritsu annually for an in-factory characterization. If a factory re-characterization is not possible, you can use this menu to re-characterize the module. Note that the re-characterization will be only as good as the prior instrument manual full calibration procedure. The recommended manual calibration is a Full Two Port calibration (12 Term Cal). For more information, contact Anritsu Customer Service.

Automatic Calibrator (AutoCal) Characterization

The availability of the Module Orientation button depends on the setting of the Auto Sense (Off/On) button.

If Auto Sense is on, the Module Orientation toggle button below is unavailable and during an auto-calibration run, the instrument will automatically detect the left and right port assignments.

If Auto Sense is off, the Module Orientation toggle button below is available allowing user definition of left/right port assignments. This is useful for test setups where the ports are reversed from the perspective of the user.

This button is unavailable if the Auto Sense button above is ON and available if the Auto Sense button is OFF.

If available, use the orientation selection to define left/right port assignments from the point of view of the operator.

Select toggles between Left=P1;Right=P2 or Right=P1;Left=P2.

Select starts the characterization process. Note that the instrument must have completed a Full Two Port calibration (12 Term Cal) before starting this calibration step. During the characterization run, dialogs appear instructing the user for the each configuration action.

If a 12 Term Calibration is not applied, a warning message appears. Click OK to clear the warning message and apply the 12 Term Calibration before proceeding.

Selecting the Load Characterization File button displays the OPEN (AUTOCAL CHARACTERIZATION ACD FILE) dialog box.

Select displays the SAVE AS (AUTOCAL CHARACTERIZATION ACD FILE) dialog box.

The OPEN (AUTOCAL CHARACTERIZATION ACD FILE) dialog box displays available ACD files. Navigate to and select the required ACD file and click Open to apply. Click Cancel to abort.

Displays the Save As (AUTO CAL CHARACTERIZATION ACD FILE) dialog box. Navigate to the required folder and click Save to save the file. Click Cancel to abort.

The HAMPSHIRE™ TSHARC™ (TOUCH SCREEN) CONTROL PANEL dialog box has five (5) tabs for control of Screen Selection, Calibration, Click, Touch, and Capacitive settings. Each screen and its recommended parameters are defined below.

The Gain Selection menu is available only when Gain Ranging button is toggled to Manual.
