E-Series sensors In FAST mode (using free run trigger), within the range –50 dBm to +17 dBm, for a 10 dB decreasing power step, the

settling time is:

1. Settling time: 0 to 99% settled readings over the GPIB.

2. When a power step crosses through the sensor’s auto-range switch point, add 25 ms. Refer to the relevant sensor manual for switch point information.

Manual filter, 10-dB decreasing power step for normal and x2 modes (not across range

switch points for E-Series and N8480 Series sensors).
