The sensor is selected by suffix 1, 2 or 3 in key word SENSe or READ of the command
header. Suffix 1 denotes the sensor connected to the SENSOR connector, suffix 2 the
sensor connected first to one of the USB interfaces and suffix 3 the sensor connected
second to one of the USB interfaces. 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:SVER?
Use the "Setup > NRP-Z Info Update Setup" dialog to update the sensor software.
SCPI command:
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:STATus[:DEVice] on page 564
Type - Power Sensors
Indicates the type of the connected R&S NRP power sensor. The sensor type is auto-
matically detected.
SCPI command:
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:TYPE on page 565
State - Power Sensors
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 mea-
surement 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 or 3 in key word SENSe or READ of the command
header. Suffix 1 denotes the sensor connected to the SENSOR connector, suffix 2 the
sensor connected first to one of the USB interfaces and suffix 3 the sensor connected
second to one of the USB interfaces. The suffix is identical to the index which is assigned
automatically to each sensor upon connection.
To query the availability of a sensor at a given connector, use the command
SENSe<ch>[:POWer]:STATus[:DEVice] on page 564.
SCPI command:
INITiate<ch>[:POWer]:CONTinuous on page 558
Level (Peak) - Power Sensors
With certain power sensors only, e.g. R&S NRP-Z81.
Indicates the measured peak level value with the selected unit.
SCPI command:
READ<ch>[:POWer] on page 558
Level (Avg.) - Power Sensors
Indicates the measured level value with the selected unit.
SCPI command:
READ<ch>[:POWer] on page 558
