With the R&S
FPL1000, the power sensors can be connected to the "Power Sensor"
interface directly, and no further cables are required. They can then be configured as
an external power sensor trigger.

The R&S
FPL1000 receives an external trigger signal when the defined trigger level is
measured by the power sensor. Power measurement results are provided as usual.
The "Gate Mode"
Level
is not supported for R&S power sensors. The signal sent by
these sensors merely reflects the instant the level is first exceeded, rather than a time
period. However, only time periods can be used for gating in level mode. Thus, the trig-
ger impulse from the sensors is not long enough for a fully gated measurement; the
measurement cannot be completed. For details on gating see
