Execute a ShortOpenLoad measurement (either a short, open or load) required to create a deembed file using the SolCalculate function.

Parameters:

solName

The name of the ShortOpenLoad configuration section that defines this measurement.

pnaName

The name of the PNA being used to make the measurements.

measurementType

The type of measurement being made (short, open or load).

Return Value:

True on Success.    If the function fails use GetErrorMessage to get the specific errors associated with the failure.

Interface Signature:

bool SolMeasure(string solName, string pnaName, ESolMeasureType measureType);


The operator must first put the hardware in the correct state and then initiate the measurement using this function. After the measurement is made a file is created that is utilized in the deembed calculation. The name of this file can be obtained using the SolFilename function. Note that the short, open and load measurements need to be made before the deembed calculation can be performed. For more details see Short Open Load Characterization.
