With  LOG/LINEAR  switch  (11)  set  to  LOG, 
lighted  index  lamp refers matching 
dB 
graduation 
to 
top 
LOG 
REF line 
of 
graticule;  for example, if 
-30  dBm 
is 
opposite  lighted lamp,  then top 
LOG 
REF  line 
is 
-30  dBm 
and 
so serves 
as 
an 
absolute 
Model8555A 
amplitude  reference.  With 
LOG 
/LINEAR  switch 
set  to  LINEAR,  lighted  index  lamp indicates the 
matching  voltage  graduation  to 
be 
used 
as 
a 
per-
diviSion  multiplier  for  calibrated voltage  readings 
(blue marking).
