This example demonstrates how to determine compression points for an amplifier in a
remote environment.
//-----------Configuring the measurement ------------
//Reset the instrument
*RST
//Configure internal generator for power sweep from -30 dBm to -20 dBm
//with level offset of 2 dB
OUTP ON
SOUR:POW:MODE SWE
SOUR:POW:STAR -30
SOUR:POW:STOP -20
SOUR:POW:OFFS -2
//Activate compression point measurement for 3 dB and 5 dB compression.
CONF:CME ON
CONF:CME:RES:P3DB ON
CONF:CME:RES:CVAL 5
