6.3.3 SOURce: Subsystem Commands
Commands are available at all times, but note that some commands behave differently depend
ing on the status of the unit. More specifically, commands related to, e.g., power settings will
have an immediate effect, but if these commands are called during scenario or signal exe
cution, the original settings will be restored when the execution stops.
In general, to permanently store settings the commands should be called when execution is not
running.
6.3.3.1 SOURce:POWer
Function
Sets the transmit power of the device. During scenario execution all signals on all bands will
get the new transmit power, and all possible power offsets between different satellite con
stellations and frequency bands are discarded.

Note
Setting not stored during scenario or 1-channel mode execution.
If power is inside allowed limits, but other RF parameters need to be modified, such parameters
are modified and an error about settings conflict is set.
