4 Measurement Operations & Settings
Measurement Functions – The SENSe Subsystem
The SENSe subsystem lets you control measurement parameters for a
Power Sensor, an Optical Head Interface module, or a return loss module.
Keysight 81635A and Keysight 81619A - Master and Slave Channels
For the Keysight 81635A Dual Power Sensor and Keysight 81619A Dual
Optical Head Interface module, channel 1 is the master channel and
channel 2 is the slave channel. The master and slave channels share the
same software and hardware triggering system. For some commands,
setting parameters for the master channel sets the parameters for the
slave channel. In these cases, you may only set parameters for the slave
channel by setting master channel parameters.
The commands listed in Table 6 can only be configured using the master
channel.
