CALCulate<cnum>:CORRection:OFFSet[:MAGNitude] <num> Superseded
Note: This command is replaced with SENS:CORR:RPOWer:OFFSet[:AMPLitude]. See an example of a Receiver Power Calibration. (Read-Write) For Receiver Power Calibration, specifies the power level to which the selected (unratioed) measurement data is to be adjusted. This command applies only when the selected measurement is of unratioed power. |
