Measuring power in gates
The Timegate mode is used to measure power in time windows (gates). Up to four different gates can
be configured, although measurement can be performed only in one of them at a time.
Measurement can be started with an external trigger signal or automatically triggered by an internal
signal. (
Trigger settings, p. 4.24).
