For details on using a power sensor as an external trigger, see "Using a Power Sensor
as an External Power Trigger" on page 323.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]PMETer<p>:TRIGger[:STATe] on page 904
TRIG:SOUR PSE, see TRIGger[:SEQuence]:SOURce on page 854
External Trigger Level ← Using the power sensor as an external trigger
Defines the trigger level for the power sensor trigger.
For details on supported trigger levels, see the data sheet.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]PMETer<p>:TRIGger:LEVel on page 903
Hysteresis ← Using the power sensor as an external trigger
Defines the distance in dB to the trigger level that the trigger source must exceed
before a trigger event occurs. Setting a hysteresis avoids unwanted trigger events
caused by noise oscillation around the trigger level.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]PMETer<p>:TRIGger:HYSTeresis on page 902
Trigger Holdoff ← Using the power sensor as an external trigger
Defines the minimum time (in seconds) that must pass between two trigger events.
Trigger events that occur during the holdoff time are ignored.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]PMETer<p>:TRIGger:HOLDoff on page 902
Drop-Out Time ← Using the power sensor as an external trigger
Defines the time the input signal must stay below the trigger level before triggering
again.
Slope ← Using the power sensor as an external trigger
Defines whether triggering occurs when the signal rises to the trigger level or falls
down to it.
Remote command:
[SENSe:]PMETer<p>:TRIGger:SLOPe on page 903
6.2.3.3 How to Work With a Power Sensor
The following step-by-step instructions demonstrate how to set up a power sensor. For
details on individual functions and settings see chapter 6.2.3.2, "Power Sensor Set-
tings", on page 324.
The remote commands required to perform these tasks are described in chap-
ter 11.7.6.5, "Working with Power Sensors", on page 893.
