Sensor Settings
Displays the Forward Settings table (Figure: Sensor Settings) for the MA24105A sensor. Select a sensor parameter using the Up/Down arrow keys or the touchscreen. Press Edit to change the value of the selected parameter.
Forward Display
Displays the forward measurement options shown in Forward Menu.
Reverse Display
Displays the reverse measurement options shown in Reverse Menu.
Summary Table
Displays a summary of Site Master instrument settings, USB sensor settings, and DUT forward and reverse measurements (Figure: Summary Table).

High Accuracy PM (MA24105A) Forward Menu
Average Power
Press this submenu key to have the sensor measure the average power in the forward direction.
Crest Factor
Press this submenu key to have the sensor measure the Crest Factor in the forward direction. Crest Factor is a ratio of peak power to RMS power.
Burst Average Manual
Press this submenu key to have the sensor measure the average power within the signal bursts (in the forward direction). The user defines the duty cycle of the bursts in order to complete the averaging calculation.
Burst Average Auto
Press this submenu key to have the sensor measure the average power within the signal bursts (in the forward direction). In auto, the sensor determines the duty cycle of the bursts in order to complete the averaging calculation.
Peak Envelope Power
Press this submenu key to have the sensor measure the peak power in the forward direction.
CCDF
Press this submenu key to have the sensor measure the value of the Complementary Cumulative Distribution Function (CCDF). The CCDF describes the probability that the signal power is greater than a threshold value.
Reverse Menu

High Accuracy PM (MA24105A) Reverse Menu
Average Power
Press this submenu key to have the sensor measure the average power in the reverse direction.
Reflection Coefficient
Press this submenu key to measure the reflection coefficient:
Reflected Power / Forward Power
Return Loss
Press this submenu key to measure return loss, which is the measurement in dB of reflected energy caused by impedance mismatch. May also be referred to as S11.
VSWR
Press this submenu key to measure Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR), which is another measurement of reflected energy caused by impedance mismatch. Expressed as a ratio of X:1. VSWR measures the voltage peaks and valleys.
