Refer to “The Optional Parameters”, on page 2-3 for additional details on
the parameters in this command.
Example
Item Description/Default Range of Values
expected_value
(for the
expected power
level)
A numeric value for the expected
power level. The units of
measurement are dBm and W. The
default units are defined by
UNIT:POWer.
sensor dependent
DEF
1
1. The mnemonic DEF means DEFault. This is not equivalent to the DEFault
parameter used in the command sub-systems. The parameters must be entered in the
specified order. If parameters are omitted, they will default from the right. The
parameter DEFault is used as a place holder. Specifying
DEF leaves the parameter
value unchanged.
resolution A numeric value for the resolution.
If unspecified the current
resolution setting is used.
1 to 4
2
1.0, 0.1, 0.01, 0.001
DEF

2. When the measurement result is linear this parameter represents the number of
significant digits. When the measurement result is logarithmic 1 to 4 represents a
resolution of 1, 0.1, 0.01 and 0.001 respectively.
source list This is the channel on which the
command is implemented.
If unspecified the current window
setup is used. However, on the
Agilent E4419B, if the window
shows a ratio or difference
measurement, the upper window
defaults to channel A and the
lower window to channel B.

only)
CONF1:POW:AC DEF,2,(@1) This command configures the
upper window to measure the
power of channel A, using the
current sensor range and a
resolution setting of 2.
