How to Measure Power Power Measurement
Agilent 8163A/B, 8164A/B & 8166A/B Mainframes, Sixth Edition 105
4 Move to one of the following, by using the cursor key:
•<Single meas>, an input trigger will trigger one sample of a measurement func-
tion to be performed and to store the result in a data array.
•<Compl. meas>, an input trigger will trigger a complete measurement function
to be performed.
• <Ignore>, input triggers are ignored.
5 Press Enter.
You can generate input triggers in any of the following ways:
• trigger the Input Trigger Connector on the rear panel of your instrument,
•set <Trigger Configuration> to <Loopback> so that an output trigger
automatically generates an input trigger, or
•use the
:TRIGger
GPIB command, see your mainframe’s Programming Guide.
How to Use Output Triggering
You can configure Agilent 8163A/B Series Power Meter modules to output
a trigger when the instrument performs certain tasks.
To set your module’s Output Trigger Configuration:
1 See “How to Set the Trigger Configuration” on page 69 for how to configure the
trigger connectors.
2 Move to the Power Meter channel and press the [Menu] softkey.
3 Move to <Output Trigger Mode>, by using the cursor key, and press Enter. You
