The R&S FSH opens the screen for power measurements. If no power sensor is connected, no 
measured value is displayed. If a power sensor is connected, the R&S FSH sets up a connection via its 
interface and after a few seconds displays the measured power. 
In the event of incorrect operation or sensor malfunction, the R&S FSH outputs the following error 
messages:
