Noise
The Noise function is selected by pressing the FUNCTION
AMPL/NOISE key twice, or only once if the function was already
Amplitude.
The Noise function is virtually identical to the Amplitude function,
except that the each reading displayed is actually the average of the
last eight readings. This provides more stable readings under noisy
conditions.
When entering Noise mode, the generator is automatically turned off,
since noise tests are usually taken without signal present. However,
the generator can be manually turned on if necessary.
In addition to the units listed for the Amplitude function, the top left
soft key can be used to select the dB unit. If this unit is selected, a
special signal-to-noise ratio mode is invoked. This mode turns the
generator on and off at regular intervals, making a level measurement
in each state. The displayed result is the difference in dB between the
