Amplitude Fixed
Range
The
following information describes how to use the Fixed-Range special
function.
This
special
function fixes the current
amplitude
range (holds the currently selected step of
the
Step
Attenuator). This
function allows monotonic
and nontransient
level control
over a
limited
range around those levels where the Step Attenuator normally autoranges.
This
level
control may be
accomplished
with the
Bright-Digit
Edit
Entry only.
The level vernier in
fixed range has
at least 12 dB of range.

Notes
1. The
amplitude
range is fixed only for Bright-Digit Edit operations.
Other
