Setting Offsets; Figure 2-24 Simplified Measurement Path - Agilent Technologies N1911A User Manual

Setting Offsets

The power meter can be configured to compensate for a signal loss or gain
in your test setup. The power meter allows you to apply offsets at three
different points in the measurement path.

Frequency Dependent Offset prior to any mathematical functions. These
allow you to compensate each channel individually. An overall offset can
be applied if required using the Display Offset.
Setting Channel Offsets
This gain or loss is applied to the measured power before any
mathematical functions, display offsets or relative functions are included.
Offsets are entered in dB and the range is –100 dB to +100 dB.
A positive value compensates for a loss and a negative value compensates
for a gain.
