[SOURce:]POWer:STARt Minimum level ... Maximum level
The command sets the RF start level in Sweep mode.
As with the Level value entered in the RF Level menu, the Offset value is also taken into
consideration with this command.
The specified value range is therefore only effective if :SOURce:POWer:Offset is set to 0. The
value range for other Offset values can be calculated using the following formula:
Minimum level + Offset ...Maximum level + Offset
Parameters: Minimum level ... Maximum level
The value range for the level setting varies according to the instrument model.
The values are given in the data sheet.
Example:
POW:STAR -20 dBm
'sets the start level for the level sweep to -15 dBm.
*RST value Resolution Options SCPI
-30 dBm 0.01 dB Compliant
