Freq Multiplier
You can multiply the frequency shown on the display without changing
the frequency output at the RF OUTPUT connector (simulating the
frequency at the output of a harmonic multiplier). Press this softkey
and enter a value from 1 through 50. Use the up and down arrow keys,
the front panel knob, or enter a value using the numeric keypad and
press the
Enter terminator softkey. For example, set the output
frequency to 1 MHz. Then press
Freq > Freq Multiplier > 3 > Enter. The
display will now show an output frequency of 3 MHz but the actual
output frequency will remain at 1 MHz. For any multiplier greater than
1, the
MULT indicator is shown in the frequency area of the display.
Default Value: 1
Softkey Location:
Freq > Freq Multiplier
Freq Offset
Press this softkey to set a value for frequency offset. A frequency offset
changes the value shown in the frequency area of the display but does
not affect the output frequency. For example, if the current output
frequency is 1 MHz and you enter a frequency offset of 3 MHz, the
output frequency will remain at 1 MHz but the display will show a
frequency of 4 MHz. This feature lets you simulate the frequency at the
output of a frequency translating device.
A frequency offset can be entered at any time during normal operation
and also when you are operating in frequency reference mode. To enter
an offset, press
Freq Offset and enter the desired frequency value using
the up and down arrow keys, the front panel knob, or enter a value
using the numeric keypad and press the
Hz, kHz, MHz, or GHz terminator
softkey. When an offset has been entered, the
OFFSET indicator is turned
on in the frequency area of the display.
Default Value: 0 Hz
Softkey Location:
Freq > Freq Offset
