[SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:CORRection:CFACtor|GAIN[1|2][:INPut][:MAGNitude] <numeric_value>
This command is used to enter a value for gain correction. The power
meter corrects every measurement by this factor to compensate for the
gain.
There are two gains which can be set:
• CFACtor|GAIN1 is used to enter a gain correction value for the
calibration factor.
You can use either CFACtor or GAIN1 in this command, both do
the same. Using GAIN1 complies with the SCPI standard whereas
CFACtor does not but may make your program more
understandable.
• GAIN2 is used to enter an offset value to compensate for the power
meter setup.
Entering a value for GAIN2 using this command automatically
turns the [SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:CORRection:GAIN2:STATe
command to ON.
Gain and loss correction are a coupled system. This means that a
gain set by [SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:CORRection:GAIN2 is
represented in the [SENSe[1]]|SENSe2:CORRection:LOSS2?
command.
LOSS2 is coupled to GAIN2 by the equation:
when the default unit is linear, and
when the default unit is logarithmic.
