4530 Series RF Power Meter

Operation

Main Menu > Channel 1 | 2 > FrDepOfst > Ofst Src

Select which, if either, of the two frequency dependent offset tables is to be used.

Off

Disable the frequency dependent offset feature. (Default)

Table-A

Enable the frequency dependent offset feature using “Table A” offset data.

Table-B

Enable the frequency dependent offset feature using “Table B” offset data.

Remote Command:

SENSe:CORRection:FDOFfset <OFF, TBLA, TBLB>

Main Menu > Channel 1 | 2 > FrDepOfst > [ Modify-A, Modify-B ]

View or edit the frequency dependent offset tables. When this item is selected, the display will show the
current table. Three columns will be displayed: On the left is the table index (entry number), the center column
is the frequency in GHz, and the right column is the offset in dB for that frequency. By positioning the cursor
on the index, the

∧ and ∨ keys will move the cursor up and down to different entries. To edit an entry, position

the cursor on that index, then use the < and > keys to select either the frequency or offset for that entry. To
make a new table entry, position the cursor on the “Add” index. To delete an entry, select the entry, and use
the

∨ key to change its frequency to “-.--- GHz” (just below 0.000 GHz). When done editing, press ENTER to

save the table, or ESC to abort and restore the old table.

Remote Command:

MEMory:FDOFfset

<entire table>

Main Menu > Channel 1 | 2 > Snsr Data >

Submenu to view sensor parameters stored in the sensor’s EEPROM.

Main Menu > Channel 1 | 2 > Snsr Data > SensrInfo

Displays a sensor information screen showing key operating parameters that are stored in the EEPROM of the
currently installed sensor. A list is displayed showing type, model number, serial number, EEPROM checksum
result, input attenuation, input impedance, and power range. Pressing the

∨ key will display a screen showing

sensor temperature compensation information for all sensors with this feature.

Remote Command:

TKSDATA

(

SYSTem:LANGuage

must be set to

BOON

)

Main Menu > Channel 1 | 2 > Snsr Data > [ FastTable, SlowTable, FreqTable ]

Displays a sensor information screen showing the frequency calfactor table that is stored in the EEPROM of
the currently installed sensor. The list shows each frequency and its corresponding calfactor. Use the

∧ and

∨ keys to scroll up or down through the list. Peak sensors contain a “fast” and “slow” table for high and low
video bandwidth settings, respectively. CW sensors contain a single “frequency” table.

Remote Command:

TKSFAST, TKSLOW (SYSTem:LANGuage

must be set to

BOON

)

Main Menu > Channel 1 | 2 > Snsr Data > TempComp

Enable or disable peak sensor temperature compensation. This feature is only available if the installed
sensor’s calibration includes a factory temperature charactization, otherwise the menu item is not displayed.
If temperature compensation is active, the temperature drift warning will not be displayed until temperature
has drifted by 30C from the Autocal temperature. TempComp always defaults to ON when the instrument is
powered up or whenever a new sensor is installed.

Remote Command:

SENSe:CORRection:TEMPComp <ON, OFF>
