:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:ATIMe?

:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:ATIMe? Returns the averaging time for the module. none

The averaging time as a float value in seconds. sens1:pow:atim? → +1.00000000E+000<END> All power meters and return loss modules

Can only be sent to master channel, slave channel parameters are identical.

command:	:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe[:UPPer]
syntax:	:SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:RANGe[:UPPer]<wsp><value>[DBM]
description:	Sets the power range for the module. For a return loss module, sets the power range of the
	return loss diode.
	The range changes at 10 dBm intervals. The corresponding ranges for linear measurements
	(measurements in Watts) is given below:
	Range	Upper Linear	Range	Upper Linear
		Power Limit		Power Limit
	+30 dBm	1999.9 mW	−50 dBm	19.999 nW
	+20 dBm	199.99 mW	−60 dBm	1999.9 pW
	+10 dBm	19.999 mW	−70 dBm	199.99 pW
	0 dBm	1999.9 µW	−80 dBm	19.999 pW
	−10 dBm	199.99 µW	−90 dBm	1.999 pW
	−20 dBm	19.999 µW	−100 dBm	0.199 pW
	−30 dBm	1999.9 nW	−110 dBm	0.019 pW
	−40 dBm	199.99 nW
parameters:	The range as a float value in dBm. The number is rounded to the closest multiple of 10, be-
	cause the range changes at 10 dBm intervals. Units are in dBm.
response:	none
example:	sens1:pow:rang -20DBM
affects:	All power meters and return loss modules.
dual sensors:	Master and slave channels are independent.
