Tfx Command
(requires ENG access)
dps background

Description Set the background level of the power sensor. The diodes are turned off during the measurement.

The background level is automatically measured a few seconds after the head is reaset.

Notes The background level needs to be measured because about 5 mW of leakage occurs from all diodes when they are "off". This background level is subtracted from every power measurement (not raw measurement) taken by the sensor.
