leveling
can
be
selected.
Additional
external
equipment
is
required
when
either
external power
meter
leveling
or
external

detector
leveling
is
used.
5.
These
ke
ys
set
the
carrier
frequenc
y and
RF
output
power
level
of
the
synthesizer
.
6.
The displa
y shows
the

of
synthesizer
parameters
as
well
as
the

is
active
.
7.
The

B
A
CKSP
ACE
5

of
an
erroneous
parameter
entry
before
it
has
been
terminated.
The

ke
ys
(the
right-most column
of
ke
ys)
are
used
to
choose
the

for
the
entered
parameter
as
well
as
to

the
parameter
entry
.
The

The
Automatic
L
evel
Control
voltage
input
(AL
C
IN)
connector
is
used
as
the
feedback
path
to
the
synthesizer
when
its
RF
output
power
level
is being
leveled externally
.
12.
The 4
SPCL
5
key
is
used
to
initiate
