Setting Measurement Limits
You can configure the power meter to detect when a measurement is
outside of a predefined upper and/or lower limit value.
Limits are window or measurement display line based and can be applied
to power, ratio or difference measurements.
Setting Limits
The power meter can be configured to verify the power being measured
against an upper and/or lower limit value. The range of values that can be
set for lower and upper limits is –150.00 dBm to +230.00 dBm. The
default upper limit is +90.00 dBm and the default lower limit is
–90.00 dBm.
A typical application for this feature is shown in Figure 1- 4.
