Setting Measurement Limits

You can configure the power meter to detect when a measurement is outside of a
predefined upper and/or lower limit value.
Limits are window or measurement display line based and can be applied to
power, ratio or difference measurements. In addition, the limits can be set to
output a TTL logic level at the rear panel Rmt I/O port when the predefined limits
are exceeded.

Setting limits

The power meter can be configured to verify the power being measured against
an upper and/or lower limit value. The range of values that can be set for lower
and upper limits is -150.00 dBm to +230.00 dBm. The default upper limit is
+90.00 dBm and the default lower limit is -90.00 dBm.
