4.3.10 Offset
This function uses the offset frequency value set in advance for the frequency value to perform the following calculation
and display the result.
<+ Offset>
Adds the offset value to the frequency measurement value.
<–Offset>
Subtracts the offset value from the frequency measurement value.
<ppm>
Expresses the deviation from the frequency measurement value in parts per million.
Pressing the [Ofs] key display the screen where you can set parameters (see Fig. 4-24).

frame and then pressing the [Enter] key highlights Offset Freq, allowing you to enter a numeric value. After entering
a value, pressing the [Enter], [<], [>], or [Return to Meas] key allows you to exit from the numeric input mode.
You can set offset frequency between 0 Hz and Fmax in units of 1 mHz.
Note, Fmax= 20 GHz.............. MF2412B
