RF Probe Setup Guide: Video 7: ISS Structures
The reverse side of the map provides details describing the structures on the ISS. Normal ISS structures include shorting bars, precisely trimmed loads, Thru lines, and longer transmission lines. Lifting the probe in the air above the ISS by raising the platen handle, conveniently and reliably creates open standards.
Only the red-marked resistors that are marked on the map should be used for calibration. These standards have been pulse-trimmed to 50 Ohms. For the substrate used here, each row consists of five (5) sets of Thru, Short and Load standards. Select a set that consists of a load that is marked "red" on the map.
