Permanent Display State
Activates the permanent indication of the power measurement result in the upper right
corner of the block diagram. The instrument shows the type of sensor, the correspond-
ing connector, the measurement source and - if set - the offset.
It is possible to switch the permanent display active for several sensors. In this case,
the instrument indicates the values of the sensor with the lowest port number in the
display.

this feature. On power-on or connecting a sensor the average power value is set by
default.
To enable the permanent display in the block diagram, select Permanent Display
