For details, see "About zeroing" on page 173.
Remote command:
:SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:ZERO on page 411
Display ← Sensor settings
Sets the display mode for power readings.
Permanent ← Display ← Sensor settings
Activates the indication of the power sensor measurement in the status bar of the
home screen.
You can activate the permanent display for several sensors.
Remote command:
:SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:DISPlay:PERManent:STATe on page 405
Display ← Display ← Sensor settings
Sets the display of results on mean or peak power.
Remote command:
:SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:DISPlay:PERManent:PRIority on page 405
Use Frequency Of ← Sensor settings
Selects the source for measurement.
"RF"
The R&S SMB100B transfers the RF frequency and level settings to
the R&S power sensor automatically. Thus you achieve power read-
ings of high accuracy, irrespective from the connected sensor type.
"User"
Sets a user defined frequency.
Example:
If you have a frequency converting device between the generator and
the DUT. If the frequency converter doubles the frequency, you can
set twice the frequency in the R&S SMB100B. The R&S power sen-
sor considers this RF frequency setting.
Set the parameter Frequency to the measurement's frequency.
Remote command:
:SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:SOURce on page 410
Frequency ← Sensor settings
Defines the frequency value if "Source > User" is used.
Remote command:
:SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:FREQuency on page 408
Level Offset State,Level Offset ← Sensor settings
Activates and defines a level offset which is considered in the power measurement
result. The level offset value is always expressed in dB, irrespective of the display of
the measurement result.
This function allows you to consider, for example, an attenuator in the signal path.
