... with pad
Performs a test measurement for a sensor with an attached attenuator. The padded sen-
sor must be connected to the sensor check source. With multipath sensors, only one path
can be used for the measurement. For testing all paths, remove the attenuator, connect
the sensor section alone and start the test by pressing "Test at Power Ref".
Report…
Opens the dialog box displaying the results of the test measurement.
The test report shows the type and the serial number of the tested sensor and the detailled
test results.
When the dialog box opens, it shows the data of the sensor last tested. The measured
values are lost when the R&S NRP2 is switched off.

Differences up to 0.02 dB at room temperature are absolutely normal and are due to the
uncertainty in the calibration of the sensor and the power reference. Greater differences
can be caused by high/low ambient temperatures but also by a damage to the sensor.
