Measurements Availability vs. Optional Hardware
Table 2-4, “Measurement Availability vs. Optional Hardware,” on page 43 shows
the dependencies between the Measuring Receiver measurements and the required
hardware/Options. The hardware discussed here is the Power Meter and the Audio
Input (Option 107). Both are optional when using the Option 233 Measuring
Receiver personality. However, some features of the measurements will be
unavailable if either Power Meter or Audio Input is not available.
In the table, “Y” means the user can make the current measurement; “N” means
the user can not make the current measurement; “-” means the measurement does
not depend on the hardware.
