6.2.3.1 Basics on Power Sensors
For precise power measurement up to 4 power sensors can be connected to the instru-
ment via the power sensor interface (on the front panel). Both manual operation and
remote control are supported.
Currently, only R&S NRP-Zxy power sensors are supported. For a detailed list of sup-
ported sensors see the data sheet.
Power sensors can also be used to trigger a measurement at a specified power level,
e.g. from a signal generator (see "Using a Power Sensor as an External Power Trig-
ger" on page 323).

Using the power sensor with several applications
The power sensor cannot be used from the R&S FSW firmware and the R&S Power
Viewer Plus (virtual power meter for displaying results of the R&S NRP power sensors)
simultaneously.
Result display
The results of the power sensor measurements are displayed in the marker table. For
each power sensor, a row is inserted. The sensor index is indicated in the "Type" col-
umn.
