 Vector Network Analyzers Using CMT VNA Software

The Analyzer state, calibration and measured data can be saved on the hard disk to an Analyzer state file and later uploaded back into the Analyzer software. The following four types of saving are available:

State

The Analyzer settings.

State & Cal

The Analyzer settings and the table of calibration coefficients.

State & Trace

The Analyzer settings and data traces1.

All

The Analyzer settings, table of calibration coefficients, and data traces and memory1.

State & Cal & Mem

The Analyzer settings, table of calibration coefficients  and memory.

1 When recalling the state with saved data traces, the trigger mode will be automatically set to «Hold» so that the recalled traces are not erased by currently measured data.

The Analyzer settings that are saved into the Analyzer state file are parameters that can be set in the following sub-levels of the softkey bar:

All the parameters in the Stimulus

All the parameters in the Measurement

All the parameters in the Format

All the parameters in the Scale

All the parameters in the Average

All the parameters in the Display except for Properties

All the parameters of the Markers

All the parameters of the Analysis

Ref Source and System Correction parameters in the System

To save and recall a state file, ten softkeys labeled State01, ... State10 can be used. Each of the softkeys correspond to a *.STA file with the same name.

To have the Analyzer state automatically recalled after each start of the instrument use the Autorecall.sta file. Use the Autorecall softkey to save the corresponding file and thus enable this function.

To disable the automatic recall of the Analyzer state, delete the Autorecall.sta file using the specific softkey.

The files can be saved and recalled with arbitrary names. To save, use the File... softkey, which will open the Save as dialog box.
