Reads or writes source power correction data sets. A power correction data set contains n real values where:
Each value corresponds to the ratio of the actual power at the reference plane (value provided by the used source) to the uncalibrated power in dB.
The number n is equal to the number of sweep points.
Increasing (decreasing) the values in the correction data sets increases (decreases) the power at the reference plane. Writing correction data (the setting command) fails if the number of transferred values is not equal to the number of sweep points.

Enables the analyzer to create a set of default source power calibration data. The analyzer uses the reference channel power to acquire the default calibration data. No external power meter is required.
The main purpose of the default calibration data set
is to provide a dummy power calibration which you can replace with your
own, external power calibration data. You may have acquired the external
data in a previous session or even on an other instrument. If you want
to use the external power calibration data on the analyzer, generate the
default data set first and overwrite it with the external data. For details
refer to the program example below.

SCPI, Command Types |
Device-specific, command or query
|
Example: |
See SOURce<Ch>:POWer<Pt>:CORRection[:ACQuire].
|
Selects an external power meter for the source power calibration.
The command cannot be used unless a power
meter is connected via GPIB bus, USB or LAN interface and configured in
the External
Power Meters
dialog.
<Ch> |
Calibrated channel number
|
<Pt> |
Calibrated port number. This parameter is ignored; the power meter selection is valid for all sources.
|
<pmeter_no> |
Number of external power meter. The parameters UP, DOWN, MIN, MAX are not available for this command. |
Range [def. unit] |
1 to number of external generators [–] |
*RST value |
The power meter selection is not changed by a reset of the analyzer.

Example: |
See SOURce<Ch>:POWer<Pt>:CORRection:COLLect[:ACQuire] and SOURce<Ch>:POWer<Pt>:CORRection:MIXer:RF[:ACQuire].
|
Enables or disables the source power calibration for channel <Ch> and for port number <Pt>. The command is disabled unless a source power calibration for the analyzer port has been performed (SOURce<Ch>:POWer<Pt>:CORRection[:ACQuire]). To enable or disable a source power calibration for an external generator use SOURce<Ch>:POWer<Pt>:CORRection:GENerator[:STATe].
<Ch> |
Calibrated channel number
|
<Pt> |
Calibrated port number
|
<Boolean> |
Enables (ON) or disables (OFF) the source power calibration for port number <Pt>. |
*RST value |
OFF [–]
