:INITiate Subsystem
The commands in this subsystem control the triggering of measurements.
:INITiate:PIManalyzer:MEASure NOISe|PIM
Title
Trigger PIM Analyzer Measurement
Description
PIM triggers the sweep of the measurement receiver unit and turns on the RF PIM Analyzer unit so the measurement receiver can measure inter modulation distortion generated from the PIM Master and the system under test. The measurement will continue until the defined test duration time has elapsed. This command is NOT a prerequisite for Distance‑to‑PIM™ (DTP) measurements.
NOISe triggers the sweep of the measurement receiver unit but does not turn on the PIM Master Test Port. The measurement will continue until the defined test duration time has elapsed.
Sending either the NOISe or PIM command during an active measurement will cancel the measurement.
