To execute the System Calibration procedure, select System Calibration from the
Execute menu. This launches the TASKIT/C2K Calibration Wizard (see below). During the
calibration procedure, it is necessary for an operator to re-configure some of the RF
cables. The entire procedure should require approximately 5 to 45 minutes, depending
on the instruments in the system.

Performing a Calibration
The following hardware is required in order to run calibration:
•
Agilent 8960 or AirAccess – provides a signal source. AirAccess will only be used by
the calibration routine if an 8960 is not present in the system.
•
Agilent 859XE or ESA-series spectrum analyzer – used to take all power
measurements.
•
Agilent 3499, TAS5048 and SR5068 – configures various system signal paths.
•
Various RF cables as provided in the TCU kit.
•
N-type female-female connector provided in the TCU kit.
•
A 50 ohm termination provided in the TCU kit.
•
13/16” Torque Wrench, 9/16” open end wrench
To perform a system calibration:
1. Configure the RF cables as specified by the instructions displayed in the dialog box.
Make sure to use the proper cables for each step of the procedure. Each cable
should be clearly labeled with a tag (e.g. cable #1 is labeled C1, etc).
2. Click the Next button to initiate measurements. The Progress Bar displays the text
Calibrating indicating that the procedure is executing.
