Does the 8901B have any advantage besides integration over a 437/8 power meter when using a 8480 series power sensor?
The 8901B is a very large and heavy instrument which to me needs some justification to be at my bench.?

E1 is invalid key sequence if calibration is pressed while not in AM or FM.
8480 series sensors work with your unit, high priced 11722A not required.
If you have option 10, connect calibrator output to input, select AM, push
calibrate and wait, takes about 20 seconds, do the same with FM, display
reading will be 99.0 to 101.0%

Hi all,
I have an 8901B here that I use to
measure power with, using the internal power detector and
*not* the fancy external 11722A sensor.
When I have nothing connected to the
input, and I press the zero key, I get an Error
21.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong,
and how to zero the internal power level
sensor?
Cheers,
Matt
