Key facts
Directional power sensors measure forward and reverse power under operating conditions. These measurements are required when installing, servicing and monitoring transmitters, antennas and RF generators. The R&S®NRT family consists of the R&S®NRT2 power reflection meter and various R&S®NRT-Zxx directional power sensors. Thanks to their wide range of measurement functions and high accuracy, they can be used in research, development and production.
Thanks to intelligent menus, the compact R&S®NRT2 base unit with a state-of-the-art 5" touchscreen is extremely easy to operate. On the top menu level, users can switch between the most important measurements. Additional parameters can be set in clearly structured submenus.
Important functions such as setting frequencies, zeroing and taking screenshots can be done at the push of button.

The R&S®NRT-Zxx directional power sensors simultaneously measure forward and reverse power and calculate additional parameters such as load matching. The R&S®NRT2;
power reflection meter then displays one forward and one reverse parameter at the same time. Calculated results, such as the amplitude distribution (CCDF) for modulated signals, can also be displayed.

Visual limit monitoring
Measurements can be shown as numeric values or in an analog bargraph. To define the analog measuring range, the autoscale function can be started at the press of a button. The scale of the analog bargraph is optimally adjusted to the measured signal. Each measurement can be visually monitored. Values outside the defined limits are highlighted in red. The analog bargraph also graphically displays the defined limits in red.
Analog bargraph with configurable limits
The R&S®NRT2 remote commands are 100 % code compatible with the command set of the previous R&S®NRT model. This simplifies device replacement and integration into existing systems (no additional programming required). The R&S®NRT2 power reflection meter can be remote controlled via USB or LAN. The R&S®NRT2-B8 option adds remote control via GPIB (IEEE 488).
