Press the ZERO softkey.
The R&S FSH outputs a message to inform the user
that no signal should be present at the power sensor
input while zeroing is being performed.
Disconnect the power sensor from any signal
sources.
Start zeroing by pressing CONTINUE (first or
second softkey).
Zeroing can be aborted before it is started by pressing
CANCEL (4th or 5th softkey), for example if a signal
source cannot be disconnected.
The R&S FSH immediately starts zeroing the power
sensor after CONTINUE is pressed. While zeroing is in
progress, the message "Zeroing power sensor, please
wait..." is displayed on the R&S FSH.
When zeroing is completed, the R&S FSH outputs the
message "Power Sensor Zero OK" and switches back
to the softkey menu for the power sensor.
Setting the power measurement weighting
For forward power display, the R&S FSH provides both average power and peak envelope power. Use
the POWER DISPLAY softkey in the Power Sensor menu to switch between the two.
Press the POWER DISPLAY softkey.
The menu window for selecting the unit entry for
forward power or reflection is opened.
Select FORWARD POWER from the menu using
the rotary knob or the cursor keys.
Confirm your selection with the ENTER key or by
pressing the POWER DISPLAY softkey.
In addition to possible units for the forward power, the
R&S FSH displays the weightings average power and
peak envelope power in a submenu. The currently set
weighting mode is highlighted in green.
Select the desired weighting mode using the rotary knob or the cursor keys.
Confirm your choice with the ENTER key or the POWER DISPLAY softkey.
The R&S FSH displays the set weighting under the heading forward power on the screen:
Forward power (AVG) = average power
Forward power (PEP) = peak envelope power
