For a detailed description of how to measure in this setup, refer to the operating man-
ual of your R&S NRP2.
6.6 Compatible Instrument
Many Rohde & Schwarz instruments allow power measurements using the R&S
NRP
‑
Z power sensors. For example, the power sensors can be used with a signal gen-
erator to achieve stable and accurate RF power, which can be further supplied to your
DUT.
You can connect the power sensors to the following instrument connectors:
●
Directly to the SENSOR connector
●
To the USB port of the instrument, using an R&S NRP
‑
Z3 or R&S NRP
‑
Z4 USB
adapter
●
To the USB port of the instrument, using an R&S NRP
‑
Z5 USB hub
Refer to the operating manual of your Rohde & Schwarz instrument to find out if it sup-
ports power measurements with the R&S NRP
‑
Z power sensors.
