Use SParameter - Power Sensors ← Filter Length - Power Sensors
Activates the use of the S-Parameter correction data of the connected power sensor. For
sensors with attenuator this checkbox is automatically checked.
Refer to the manual of the connected R&S NRP-Zxx power sensor for a description on
how to use the SParameter table.

Enable Logging
Activates recording of R&S NRP-Z power sensor readings.
If enabled, every value measured by a connected power sensor and indicated in the user
interface, is written to a log file. Per measurement the function logs the measured value
(2 readings when you work with peak sensors), the sensor type and the measurement
time (time stamp).
The function automatically creates the file name SensLog<n>.txt and stores the file
in *txt format under /var/user/SensorLogging on the hard disk. You can enable
logging for each connected sensor separately. If enabled, one file per sensor is written.
Note: This specific function is intended for measurements with long time intervals, or if
there is a risk that the connection to the sensor can be interupted and you need the data
for reconstruction.
The simplified recording function continuously writes the values in the file of the corre-
sponding sensor number, like Sens1Log.txt. When you start a new measurement, the
existing data will not be overwritten, but added to the file.
If you use this function, it is recommended that you regularly remove the files from the
hard disk, since they require storage capacity.

5.3.7 RF Sweep and List Mode
5.3.7.1 Overview
The R&S Signal Generator offers three different sweep types (frequency sweep, level
sweep and LF sweep) to be activated alternatively. Each type has 6 modes which differ
with respect to the sweep cycle mode (continuous, individual and step-by-step) and trig-
gering mode (automatic, internal and external).
●
Sweeps and list mode can not be activated simultaneously, they deactivate each
other.
● Activating a sweep mode instantly disables NRP-Z Level Control.
A running sweep mode blocks "NRP-Z Level Control". It can not be activated
