Power Sweep Mode
Power sweep is generally used in power level calibration setup where the
frequency is fixed (CW frequency), and the amplitude of the power source
signal is swept. This mode can be used to characterize the flatness,
linearity or gain compression of a device under test.
Procedures
1 Connect sensor to a power source.
2 Connect power meter TRIG OUT to power source TRIG IN using a
BNC cable. The same connection is applied for power source TRIG OUT
to power meter TRIG IN.
