4.9.5.2 Analog Hardware Configurations
Frequency Changes
When increasing or decreasing output frequency, using any method: if the new frequency
is too large or small for the present hardware configuration, there will be no noticeable
effect as the hardware reconfigures automatically.
Voltage Level Changes
There are two hardware configurations for output voltage: one (call it 'A') is used for
outputs whose excursions are between -6V or +6V; and the other ('B') deals with both
positive and negative excursions in excess of 6V.
If OUTPUT is ON, it remains on unless a change of hardware configuration is required
for the new output voltage. The OUTPUT is temporarily turned OFF only if the
demanded output calls for a change of configuration (from 'A' to 'B' or from 'B' to 'A').
After the hardware has reconfigured, OUTPUT is turned ON again automatically at the
new voltage. No warning is given. This interruption should cause little disturbance to
the reading or response on any UUT.
The resolution of each analog voltage output level is half that shown on the display:
i.e. when incrementing the least-significant digit of either of the display voltage levels,
the output voltage will increment only on alternate display increments. This is allowed
for in the 9100 accuracy specification.
