Powermeter parameter configuration
This application note describes how the measurement parameters of a Powermeter can be configured to get a fast and stable power measurement.
Each powermeter in RadiMation® has a powermeter configuration tab in the device drivers. In this tab, the accuracy of power measurement can be optimized. This function allows to make multiple measurements, and wait until the value is stable. Using a measurement-loop.
 Pre Wait Time
|
Wait time before starting the measurement-loop. Can be used to wait for a signal generator, and or amplifier to stabalize. |
| Measure
|
The maximum ammount of measure times, for the measurement-loop |
| Wait Time
|
The wait time before each measurement is taken, during the measurement-loop. |
| Max. Difference
|
If the measured power between each measurement in the measurement-loop, is less than this value. The measured power is stable. The loop will stop. |
The powermeter can be used in the test to regulate signal generator values.
The powermeter can also be used as monitoring input channel.
For each powermeter usage, the multiple measurement loop can be configured.
