Need help


 

I have calibrated the VNA. With the short plug it shows 1:12.76 SWR. After calibration if I reinsert the short plug it shows SWR of 1:9554.1 to 1:2147483647.47.

Is there away to do a hard reset back to factory settings? Or is it bricked?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Before you do any new cal., be sure to clear any past cal memories.

What do you expect the SWR of a short (or open) to be?


 

Yes Sir. I reset it before recalibration.

I was told it should be >9000 during calibration.

For an open/short the VSWR is (mathematically) infinity. Displaying that is a practical limitation. Instead, you might look at dB(|S11|) or the Return Loss which should be right around 0dB after a calibration. Or, just |S11| (in linear units) which would ideally be 1.0. Of course, all this to within practical limits which, if you're within 1% of 1.0 that's a 40dB return loss and pretty darn good for most every application.

Hope that helps!
