Setting The Range - Agilent Technologies E4418B User Manual

Setting the Range

The power meter has no internal ranges which can be set. The only ranges that can be
set are those of the Agilent E-series power sensors. With an Agilent E-series power
sensor the range can be set either automatically or manually. Use autoranging when
you are not sure of the power level you will be measuring. There are two manual
settings either "LOWER" or "UPPER". The lower range is more sensitive than the
higher range. "LOWER" covers the range of -70 dBm to -13.5 dBm. "UPPER" covers
the range of -14.5 dBm to +20 dBm. The default is "AUTO".
