Title
Calibration Initialize
Description
Shift-2 (Calibrate), Configure DUT User,Short Initiates the calibration process. This command must be issued before sending Open, Short, Load, or Thru 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 steps for 1-Port (OSL) and the third calibration steps for 2- Port (OSLT). 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.

Title
Calibrate Type
Description
Configures the calibrate type. If 1 is set then Calibration procedures consist of Open-Short-Load-Thru (OSLT) for 2-port. If 0 is set then Calibration procedures consist of Open-Short-Load (OSL) for 1-port. The query version of the command returns a 1 if the calibrate type is set to 2-Port and 0 if the calibrate type is set to 1-Port. Factory Preset / *RST 2-Port

Title
Calibration Open
Description
Starts the Open calibration measurement. This is the first calibration step for both the 1-Port(Open-Short-Load) and 2-Port (Open-Short-Load-Thru) 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.

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

Calibration Thru
Description
Starts the Thru Calibration measurement. This is the last calibration step for the 2-Port calibration type. Note that the Calibration Load process must be completed before calling this command. You must also connect the RF Out port to the RF In port, include any test port extension cables used in the Calibration Load step before issuing this command.
