14.14 Power sensor measurement subsystems
The power sensor measurement uses several subsystems:
●
The CALCulate subsystem is used to configure the time gated measurements in
power analysis.
●
The DISPlay subsystem is used to configure the diagram appearance.
●
The INITiate command switches the local state of the continuous power mea-
surement on and off.
●
The READ system is used to start and to retrieve the measurement result of the
power viewer measurement.
●
The SENSe subsystem contains the commands for configuring the power viewer
and power analysis measurements with power sensors connected to the generator.
Up to four sensors can be connected to the signal generator.
●
The TRACe subsystem is used to configure the traces in power analysis and to
retrieve the measurement results.
Power Viewer
The power viewer measurement is started with the READ command, this command
also retrieves the measurement results.
The sensors are distinguished by the suffix under SENSe:
●
Power sensor connected to the SENSOR port = SENSe[1]
●
First Power sensor connected to the USB interface = SENSe2
●
Second Power sensor connected to the USB interface = SENSe3
●
Third Power sensor connected to the USB interface = SENSe4
