Measuring the power
1. Press the [MODE] key.

As soon as the R&S Spectrum Rider recognizes the power sensor, it displays the type
of the directional power sensor that is connected in the "Title bar" (see
Figure 3-5
).
After a few seconds, it also shows the forward power and return loss currently mea-
sured at the load.
Zeroing the power sensor
Before performing the power measurement, you should zeroing the power sensor.
After zeroing is done, the R&S Spectrum Rider displays the message "Power sensor
zero done" and again shows the power sensor softkey menu.
► Connect the R&S FSH-Z14 or R&S FSH-Z44 between the source and the load.
The R&S Spectrum Rider displays the measured forward power in dBm and the
SWR of the load. For more information on using the directional power sensor, see
"Power Meter" in the R&S Spectrum Rider user documentation.
