Power Meter Remote Operation 1
Keysight N8262A Programming Guide 95
Sensor
Different measurement rates are achievable depending on the sensor type being
used, as shown in Table 1-4:
Trigger Mode
The power meter has a very flexible triggering system. For simplicity, it can be
described as having three modes:
– Free Run: When a channel is in Free Run, it continuously takes measurements
on this channel. A channel is in free run when INITiate:CONTinuous is set to
ON and TRIGger:SOURce is set to IMMediate.
– Triggered Free Run: When a channel is in Triggered Free Run Continuous
Trigger, it takes a new measurement each time a trigger event is detected. A
channel is in Triggered Free Run Continuous Trigger when
INITiate:CONTinuous is set to ON and TRIGger:SOURce is not set to
IMMediate.
– Single Shot: When a channel is in Single Shot, it takes a new measurement
when a trigger event is detected and then returns to the idle state. A channel is
in Single Shot when INITiate:CONTinuous is set to OFF. Note that a
measurement can take several INT/EXT triggers depending on the filter
settings. Refer to “TRIGger[1]|2:DELay:AUTO <boolean>” on page 580 for
further information.
