Chapter 2 Operating Your Frequency Counter

Using Power Correction

5Press the Enter key to select profile number 3.

Power Correction is enabled using profile number 3, and the measurement display returns. The power reading now includes an adjustment for the loss incurred at the measured frequency. The amount of the adjustment is derived from the loss and frequency values in the data points in the selected profile. A lower-case letter “c” is shown in the hundredths position of the power-measurement display to indicate that Power Correction is enabled.

NOTE	Pressing the Enter key when the number of a power-correction profile
	(1-9) is displayed selects that profile, enables Power Correction, and exits
	the Menu. If you intend to enter data in the currently displayed profile,
	press the right-arrow key instead of the Enter key to select the
	power-correction profile without exiting the Menu.

You can also select a power-correction profile by pressing the right- or left-arrow key (instead of the Enter key). When you press either arrow key, you do not exit the Menu. As the next example shows, you should select a profile with the right-arrow key when you intend to enter or change the loss and/or frequency values in the selected profile. You should select the power-correction profile with the left-arrow key if you are done working with the power-correction settings, but you want to change settings for other functions in the Menu.
