1. The mnemonic
parameter used in the command sub-systems. The parameters must be entered in the
specified order. If parameters are omitted, they will default from the right. The
parameter DEFault is used as a place holder. Specifying
value unchanged.
2. When the measurement result is linear this parameter represents the number of
significant digits. When the measurement result is logarithmic 1 to 4 represents a
resolution of 1, 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001 respectively.
Example
2-10
Description/Default
A numeric value for the expected
power level. The units of
measurement are dBm and W. The
default units are defined by
UNIT:POWer.
A numeric value for the resolution.
If unspecified the current
resolution setting is used.
This is the channel on which the
command is implemented.
If unspecified the current window
setup is used. However, on the
HP E4419B, if the window shows a
ratio or difference measurement,
the upper window defaults to
channel A and the lower window to
channel B.
