Claim:
1. An impedance tuner system, usable in a measurement system including at least one other system device, the tuner system comprising: an impedance tuner, including a signal transmission line and an impedance-varying system coupled to the transmission line, and responsive to command signals to vary the impedance presented by the impedance tuner; and an impedance tuner controller connected to the impedance-varying system by a signal communication link and configured to generate the command signals, and wherein at least one system device driver and at least one of characterization, calibration and measurement algorithms for corresponding characterization, calibration and measurement functions of the measurement system are embedded into the tuner controller, the tuner controller configured to allow a user to control execution of said at least one of said characterization, calibration and measurement algorithms using said tuner controller, including controlling the at least one other system device in the execution of the at least one algorithm.
