Chapter 4, Description of Fields

Fields

Antenna In

This field is used to indicate losses or gains between the ANTENNA IN port and the device-under-test.

Enter a positive value to indicate a gain (such as an amplifier). The Spectrum Analyzer’s marker level (Lvl) measurement is automatically reduced by that amount. The Spectrum Analyzer’s Ref Level is automatically decreased by the same amount, so the trace position does not appear to change.

Enter a negative value to indicate a loss (such as cable loss). The Spectrum Analyzer Marker’s Level ( Lvl) measurement is automatically increased by that amount. The Spectrum Analyzer’s Ref Level is automatically increased by the same amount, so the trace position does not appear to change.

This field is only used when the RF Level Offset field is set to On.

Screens Where Field is Present

CONFIGURE

Arm

This field triggers a single measurement. It is only displayed when the Meas Cntl field is set to Single. This field is not updated to show the Meas Cntl mode when the Test Set is in remote operating mode.

GPIB Examples

“TRIG:MODE:RETR SINGle”

sets the remote operation trigger mode to “Single”.

“TRIGger:IMMediate”

triggers all active measurements.

Operating Considerations

Sending a command to trigger a measurement will re-start a measurement if there is one in progress.

When any of the CDMA screens are selected, all measurements are active. This eliminates the need to display specific screens to get measurement results.
