the instrument. The attenuation factor is used,
with the calibration factor (see ) to set the filter
attenuation.
Attenuation
filter
(dB) = Att(dB) - Cal(dB)
You set the attenuation factor by sending a
value (default units are dB), or by sending
MIN, DEF or MAX, which specify the
minimum, default and maximum values for the
attenuation factor.
The minimum value and the default value are
those values for which Attenuation
filter
= 0dB.
The maximum value is that value for which
Attenuation
filter
is at its greatest.
