Freq Offset
Press this softkey to set a value for frequency offset. A frequency offset changes
the value shown in the frequency area of the display but does not affect the output
frequency. For example, if the current output frequency is 1 MHz and you enter a
frequency offset of 3 MHz, the output frequency will remain at 1 MHz but the
display will show a frequency of 4 MHz. This feature lets you simulate the
frequency at the output of a frequency translating device.
A frequency offset can be entered at any time during normal operation and also
when you are operating in frequency reference mode. To enter an offset, press
Freq Offset and enter the desired frequency value using the up and down arrow
keys, the front panel knob, or enter a value using the numeric keypad and press the
Hz, kHz, MHz, or GHz terminator softkey. When an offset has been entered, the
OFFSET indicator is turned on in the frequency area of the display.
