:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe:MONitor[:UPPer]?
:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe[:UPPer]?
Sets the power range for a retun loss module's monitor diode.
none
The range setting as a float value in dBm
(−110 ≤ value ≤ +30).
→
sens1:pow:rang? -2.00000000E+001<END>
All return loss modules.
Master and slave channels are independent.
:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe:AUTO
SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe:AUTO <wsp><boolean>
Enables or disables automatic power ranging for the module.
If automatic power ranging is enabled, ranging is automatically determined by the instru-
ment. Otherwise, it must be set by the sensn:pow:rang command.
A boolean value:
none
sens1:pow:rang:auto 1
All power meters and return loss modules
For return loss modules, affects return loss diode and monitor diode simultaneously.
Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel is also affected.
:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe:AUTO?
:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe:AUTO?
Returns whether automatic power ranging is being used by the module.
none
A boolean value:
→
sens1:pow:rang:auto?
All power meters and return loss modules
Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel parameters are identical.
Measurement Functions – The SENSe Subsystem
0 or OFF: automatic ranging disabled
1 or ON: automatic ranging enabled
0: automatic ranging is not being used.
1: automatic ranging is being used.
