command: :SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:REFerence:STATe:RATio
syntax: :SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]POWer:REFerence:STATe:RATio<wsp>
<slot number>|255|TOREF,<channel numb er>
description: Selects the reference for the module.
parameters: slot number:
255 or TOREF:
channel number:
an integer value representing the slot number you want to reference
results are displayed relative to an abso lute reference
an integer value representing the channel number you want to refer-
ence
NOTE If you want to reference another power sensor channel, use an integer value
corresponding to the slot for the first parameter and an integer value corresponding
to the channel for the second value.
If you want to use an absolute reference, use TO REF as the first parameter and any
integer value as the second parameter.
response: none
examples: sens1:pow:ref:stat:rat 2,1
sens1:pow:ref:stat:rat TOREF,1
References channe l 2.1
References an absolute reference
affects: All power meters
dual sensors: Master and slave channels are independent.
command: :SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]:POWer:REFerence:STATe:RATio?
syntax: :SENSe[n]:[CHANnel[m]]POWer:REFerence:STATe:RATio?
description: Returns the reference setting for the module.
parameters: none
response: results are displayed relative to an absolute reference or to the curren t power reading from
another channel.
examples: sens1:pow:ref:stat:rat? → +255,+0<END>
sens1:pow:ref:stat:rat? → +2,+1<END>
results are displayed relative
to an absolute reference
results are displayed relative
to channel 2.1
affects: All power meters
dual sensors: Master and slave channels are in dependent.
