Advisory Messages
An advisory is simply a message that lets you know something useful - for
example “File saved successfully” or “Measuring fundamental.” Operation
completion and running status indications are common types of advisories.
Advisories have no number and are not logged in the error queue.
Advisories include gray-out “settings conflict” errors. These gray-outs are
benign (i.e. changing them has no impact on the current measurement).
Advisories are event-type errors only. They are never conditions.
Message Description/Correction Information
All Auto/Man functions have
been set to Auto
All Auto/Man functions have
been set to Auto.
Message generated by pressing the Auto Couple front-panel key.
Allowable Center Frequency
exceeded for the current span
When rotating the knob or step up/down keys to change the Center
frequency, the value of the Span is kept constant. Therefore, the center
frequency is limited by the frequency range of the instrument.
Allowable Span exceeded for
the current center frequency
When rotating the knob or step up/down keys to change the Span, the
value of the Center frequency is kept constant. Therefore, the span is
limited by the frequency range of the instrument.
Allowable Start Frequency
exceeded for the current span
When rotating the knob or step up/down keys to change the Start
frequency, the value of the Span is kept constant. Therefore, the start
frequency is limited by the frequency range of the instrument.
Allowable Stop frequency
exceeded for the current span
When rotating the knob or step up/down keys to change the Stop
frequency, the value of the Span is kept constant. Therefore, the stop
frequency is limited by the frequency range of the instrument.
Already in Single, press
Restart to initiate a new
sweep or sequence
The instrument is already in the single state. If you want to start a new
sweep or sequence, press the Restart key instead.
Attenuation changes have no
impact with external mixing
Auto sweep time rules do not
apply in FFT sweeps
FFT sweeps do not use the auto sweep time rules, so the rules setting
cannot be changed from the front panel. The setting can be changed
remotely and it will have no effect on the current operation unless the
analyzer is switched out of FFT sweeps.
Band Adjust has no effect on
a Fixed marker
If a Marker is a Fixed type marker, the marker's value does not change
from when it first became fixed. So you cannot change the band of a fixed
marker.
Band Adjust has no effect
with Mkr Function Off
If Marker Function is off changing the band has no effect
Band-pass filter set to OFF Turning on any high-pass or low-pass filter will turn off band pass filters.
