), along with their corresponding submenus. The external power sensor (PN: E7000A-
00500) is necessary for effective use of this measurement mode.
4-2.1 — Measurement Menu
The
Measurement main menu
contains inline high power measurement settings, including average power,
burst power, and Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF).
Measurement Menu
Average Power:
Depicts the mean power reading calculated over several cycles, as indicated by
the yellow needle on the display.
Peak Power:
Depicts the maximum instantaneous power reading, as indicated by the yellow
needle on the display.
Burst Power:
Depicts time-gated burst power readings and the duty cycle (the percentage of time
the signal is on. E.g., for 0.5-second bursts that begin every 1.0 second, the duty cycle is 50%.)
CCDF:
Depicts the percentage of time the power reading meets or exceeds a specific power level.
Peak / Average (PAR):
Displays the ratio of the peak measured power level to the time-averaged
power level.
4-2.2 — Frequency Menu
The
Frequency main menu
contains the center frequency parameter, as well as signal standard selection.
Frequency Submenu
Center Frequency:
Sets the midpoint of the frequency range for the current measurement. Input a
value using the arrow keys, rotary knob, or data keypad, then select a unit (Hz, kHz, MHz or GHz).
Signal Standard Submenu
Select Signal STD: :
Opens the Signal Standard selection dialog: a list of commonly-used signal
standards and their frequency ranges. Select standards using the arrow keys or rotary knob, then
tap the

Channel:
Sets a specific channel to test.
Ch Step:
Sets the channel step size. Enter “1” to test each channel one by one.
