attenuator, which is normally coupled (linked) to the reference level control,
reduces the power level of the spectrum analyzer input signal at the input
mixer. The attenuator is recoupled when AUTO is underlined.

Caution
To prevent damage to the input mixer, the power level at the input mixer must
not exceed +30 dBm. To prevent signal compression, power at the input to the
input mixer must be kept below -10 dBm.
Note
To protect the mixer from possible damage, 0 dB RF attenuation (no input
power reduction to the mixer) can be selected only from the number/units
keypad.
