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 7.12,
"SENSe, READ and INITiate Subsystems", on page 268.
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 at the first USB interface, and suffix 2, 3 and 4
are assigned to further sensors connected via USB. 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 86 dialog to update
the sensor software.
Remote command:
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:STATus[:DEVice]? on page 275
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 276
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:SNUMber? on page 275
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.
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 state is not influenced by these commands, measurements results can be
retrieved with local State on or off.
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 at the first USB interface, and suffix 2, 3 and 4
are assigned to further sensors connected via USB. The suffix is identical to the index
which is assigned automatically to each sensor upon connection.
