Automatic calibration with Agilent's PNA-L N5230A

[12356]

Hi
I have Agilent's PNA-L N5230A and I want to create a script which will do an automatic calibration with Ecal for several csa files. Currently, the calibration done manually with Calibration Wizard. I have a script which suppose to do that but it does not work on our VNA. We thought the problem might be the old VNA revision so we updated it, and still no changes - the script does not work.

script's source is  http://na.tm.agilent.com/pna/help/WebHelp7_5/Programming/GPIB_Example_Programs/Perform_Guided_ECal.h...)

The errors are:

1.Guided cal error “N4433A-0092 Ecal” port 1,2,3,4 cal kit not found

2.SCPI command received has caused error number 192 “guided cal initialization failed”

3.could not save calibration sequence because it doesn’t exist

How can I solve the problem? May be by using  GPIB commands...

Thanks

Best egards

Hi Sveta,

Are you using any NI Hardware or Software to communicate with this instrument? I see that you are using Agilent script and would recommend contacting Agilent for detailed explanation.
