The Pulse Power measurement is incompatible to other measurement functions (e.g.
marker functionality or statistics). If you use a command that controls those functions,
the R&S
FSW aborts the Pulse Power measurement.
The R&S
FSW also aborts the Pulse Power measurement if you end the remote ses-
sion.
The commands can be used in two different ways.
●
Instrument setup, measurement and querying of the results in a single command
line. With this method, there is the least delay between the measurement and the
result output. However, it requires the control computer to wait for the response
from the instrument.
●
Instrument setup and querying of the result list at the end of the measurement:
With this method, the control computer may be used for other activities while the
measurement is being performed. However, more time is needed for synchroniza-
tion via service request.

Performing Pulse Power Measurements
The following commands control pulse power measurements.
CALCulate<n>:MARKer<m>:FUNCtion:MSUMmary
.......................................................... 817
...............................................................................................818
................................................................................... 818
...................................................................................... 819

CALCulate<n>:MARKer<m>:FUNCtion:MSUMmary
<TimeOffset>,<MeasTime>,<PulsePeriod>,<#OfPulses>
This command configures power measurements on pulses in the time domain.
To evaluate the pulse power, the R&S
FSW uses the data captured during a previous
measurement. The data recorded during the set measurement time is combined to a
measured value for each pulse according to the detector specified and the indicated
number of results is output as a list.
To get a valid result, you have to perform a complete measurement with synchroniza-
tion to the end of the measurement before reading out the result. This is only possible
for single sweeps. See also
