CMU RF Measurements 
1100.4903.12 6.47  E-10 
Subsystem POWer:TIME  
The subsystem POWer:TIME configures the time axis. The subsystem corresponds to the Time Scale 
hotkey in the graphical measurement menu Power. 
 
[SENSe:]POWer:TIME:DELay <Delay>  Delay
<Delay> 
Parameter description  Def. value  Default unit  FW vers. 
See below  Delay time between trigger time and start of the 
measurement 
–10.0 µs  s  V1.15 
Command description 
This command defines the time when the measurement is started relative to the trigger time. 
The permissible range of delays depends on the span and bandwidth, e.g.: 
- 152.9 µs to 142.9 µs (bandwidth 1 MHz, span 10 µs) 
- 15.7919207 s to 5.7919207 s (bandwidth 10 Hz, span 10 s ) 
 
[SENSe:]POWer:TIME:SPAN <Span>  Span
<Span> 
Parameter description  Def. value  Default unit  FW vers. 
10 µs to 10 s  Span of the power measurement 100 µs s V1.15 
Command description 
This command defines the span (i.e. the total evaluation time) of the Power measurement. The permissible 
spans depend on the selected bandwidth. 
 
CONFigure:POWer:CONTrol:TIMeout <Timeout>   Timeout for triggered measurements
<Timeout> 
Parameter description  Def. value  Default unit  FW vers. 
1 s to 60 s 
 
Timeout period after which the measure-
ment is aborted 
10 s  s  V1.15 
Command description 
This command defines a timeout period after which the measurement is aborted (e.g. if no trigger event could be 
detected).
