Setting the Range

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.
