Note
At voltage outputs of 100 volts and above (nominal), you may notice a
slight high-pitched sound. This is normal.
5. Press a multiplier key, if necessary. For example, press c.
6. Output in volts Press V.
Output in dBm Press bV.
7. The Control Display now shows the amplitude of your entry. For example,
2.44949 V (below).
2.44949 V
8. Press the numeric keys and decimal point key to enter the desired frequency output
(maximum five numeric keys). Press a multiplier key, if necessary. For example,
press the kilo multiplier key K. Then press the H key. For example, 1.1234
kHz (below).
