The instrument detects connected sensors automatically and lists all in the selec-
tion field.
"Sensor 1" is firmly assigned to the sensor on the circled SENSOR socket. If no
sensor is connected to this socket, channel 1 remains not assigned. Sensors 2...4
are assigned to the sensors at the USB connectors, according to their sequence of
connection.
When you connect your power sensor(s) via the R&S NRP-Z5 USB sensor hub, each
channel of the hub is firmly assigned to the associated sensor channel in the genera-
tor.
The remote commands required to define the settings are described in Chapter 7.15,
"SENSe, READ and INITiate Subsystems", on page 578.
Sensor
Selects the R&S NRP-Z power sensor for display.
In remote control, the sensors are set up using the SENSe commands. The remote
measurement is triggered by the READ query which also provides the measurement
results.
The sensor is selected by suffix 1, 2, 3 or 4 in key word SENSe or READ of the com-
mand header.
Suffix 1 denotes the sensor connected to SENSOR, suffix 2 the one at the first USB
interface, and suffix 3 and 4 are assigned to the sensors at the following USB interfa-
ces. The suffix is identical to the index which is assigned automatically to each sensor
upon connection.
Note: The software version of the connected power sensor can be retrieved by means
of the remote control command :SENS:POW:TYPE?.
Use the "Setup >" Chapter 5.2.3.5, "NRP-Z Info/Update", on page 129 dialog to update
the sensor software.
Remote command:
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:STATus[:DEVice]? on page 587
Type
Indicates the type and the serial number of the connected R&S NRP-Z power sensor.
The sensor type is automatically detected.
Remote command:
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:TYPE? on page 588
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:SNUMber? on page 586
State
Activates/deactivates level measurement by the power sensor.
The local state is set with the INIT command. Switching the local state off enhances
the measurement performance.
