EXFO PM-1600 High-Speed Power Meter - Manual (Page 137)

Remote Control (SCPI) Commands
High-Speed Power Meter 127
Specific Commands
SENSe:CORRection:OFFSet[:MAGNitude]
Description This command sets a correction factor (for the selected
channel when using a PM-1620). The correction factor will be a
positive or negative value when dB or dBm units are selected,
or a positive value when W units are selected. If this command
is sent while an acquisition is in progress, the “Acquisition
already running” error message will be raised.
Syntax SENS:CORR:OFFS[:MAGN]
Parameters The parameter is a correction factor in dB or
W/W units.
-5.999 ≤ numeric_value ≤ +6.000 (dB)
0.1 ≤ numeric_value ≤ 3.9811 (W/W)
The parameter can be in dB or W/W
If an invalid parameter is entered, the “Data type error”
message appears.
Example SENS:CORR:OFFS:MAGN 2.105 DB
Note The correction factor, when expressed in W/W, indicates the
ratio between the power received (in W) and the reference (in
W) for the current wavelength and channel.
