See Chapter 8.9.4.1, "Connecting R&S NRP Power Sensors to the R&S SMW",
on page 582.
2. Select "RF" > "RF Measurement" > "NRP Sensor Mapping".
3. If the sensor is not detected automatically, select "Scan > Start".
The instrument scans the network and the USB connections for connected sensors
and lists all detected R&S NRP sensors in the mapping table.
4. In the "Mapping" column, assign the sensor to a sensor channel, see Chap-
ter 8.9.4.2, "NRP Sensor Mapping", on page 583.
5. Close the dialog.
To configure and calibrate the R&S NRP in the R&S SMW
Provided the power sensor is connected to the R&S SMW and is assigned to a sensor
channel, we recommend that you calibrate and configure the power sensor in the "NRP
Power Viewer" dialog.
1. In the block diagram > RF A, turn off the RF output signal.
2. Select "RF" > "RF Measurement" > "NRP Power Viewer".
3. If the R&S SMW has detected several connected power sensors, select the tab of
the sensor you want to use.
4. Select "Zero" to start zeroing of the sensor.
Note: Always turn the RF power off or disconnect the sensor from RF before zero-
ing, since the function calibrates the power sensor at zero signal power.
The zeroing process takes a few seconds, depending on the power sensor type.
5. Configure additional parameters for the selected sensor as required.
6. Select "State > On".
7. Close the dialog.
To create user correction data with an R&S NRP and the R&S SMW
We assume, that the power sensor is connected, assigned and ready for operation.
1. Select "RF" > "RF Level" > "User Correction".
