When you enable a logging data acquisition function for a 8163A/B Series Power Meter with averaging time of less than
100 ms with input hard ware triggering disabled, all GPIB commands will be ignored for the duration of the function.
See
logging data acquisition function.
Stop any function before you try to set up a new function. Some parameters cannot be set until you stop the function.
response: none
example: sens1:func:stat logg,star
affects: All power meters and return loss modules
dual sensors: Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel is also affected.
