Setting Measurement Limits
You can configure the power meter to detect when a measurement is
outwith a predefined upper and/or lower limit value.
There are two types of measurement limits you can set:
• Channel Limits - are applied to the input channel and are for power
measurements only.
• Window Limits - are windows based (upper and lower) and can be
applied to power, ratio, or difference measurements. In addition, the
window based limits can be set to output a TTL logic level at the rear
panel Rmt I/O port when the predefined limits are exceeded.
Setting Channel Limits
The power meter can be configured to verify the power being measured
against an upper and/or lower limit value. The range of values that can be
set for upper and lower limits is –150 dBm to 230 dBm. The default
upper limit is 90.00 dBm and the default lower limit is –90.00 dBm.
