UPS about the R&S TR-Check have you tried to run in W95 compatibility mode and
as administrator ?
Hello Kurt,
After reading T-Check.pdf from you from 2010-01-31,
I tried under Windows 10-64
The Installation files are from 1997.
When trying to start SETUP.EXE it was not possible.
Next I started the MS compatibility check, Windows 8 was recommended, and set.
That does not work too.
Next with administrator rights, no success.
Next try was to install under Windows 7-32. That works.
A test with the provided data file ZVR.S2P works.
But my from NanoVNA-Saver exported, extended S2P file was not accepted.
I could not figure out, what was wrong with the format.
Next I tried VNWA version 36.7.8.1 after reading your text from 2014-01:
How to perform a T-Check for a VNWA Calibration.pdf
A test with data file ZVR.S2P works.
But my from NanoVNA-Saver exported, extended S2P file was not accepted.
I could not figure out, what was wrong with the format.
Next I found the spreadsheet from Erik:
Thread: Trying to understand the T-Check outcome of the nanoVNA
/g/nanovna-users/message/3020 T-Check.xlsx (199 KB)
I could not make it to work with my data file.
Then I posted in
/g/nanovna-users/message/6502,
asking for help.
Erik provided a new version of his spreadsheet T-Check.xlsx (220 KB)
/g/nanovna-users/message/6505I imported my data file T-CheckR31.S2P and it worked, see
/g/nanovna-users/message/6517I will optimise this spreadsheet to accept direct NanoVNA-Saver
exported S2P files, without modification.
I read, that in case of a symmetric T-Check hardware setup
you could copy to fill last 4 columns:
copy C2-S11Real to C8-S22Real
copy C3-S11Imag to C9-S22Imag
copy C4-S21Real to C6-S12Real
copy C5-S21Imag to C7-S12Imag
