Anritsu ML9001 power meter program example help

[TeaAndBiscuits]

I am supposed to program Anritsu ML9001 power meter on a setup in short time.

The operation manual/ command manual for device is Not available in the company.

Anritsu said it will take 4 weeks for manual to reach me.

I do have a driver from NI website, but it has individual VIs, and no example which steps thru initialization, configuration of this device

Can anyone help with a wrapper example if they have, which steps thru initialization(configuration), and then power measurement of this device?

This will give me idea about functionality of  power meter, and help me take sequencing steps needed for case.

Thanks.

Hi xseadog

There is no 9001 manual to download from the website, including this link.

Separate order is the only way to get one, which takes 4 weeks

thanks for effort though.

regards

I haven't used this particular power meter but the operation seems simple enough. You've only got 4 different config functions and one for measurement rate. As a guess, you should use all of those before taking a measurement. If you want to use the max hold, then use the Max Hold Enable/ Read Max Hold Value. While there is no high level example, each VI has documentation. Open the VI and with context help turned on, move your mouse over the VI's icon. If you move the mouse over a control, you'll get help there as well.
