In instruments with Option EP0, this is the same configuration as "Best Spurs" on
page 1839. It is available with the "Fast Tuning" on page 1839 label for convenience,
and to make the user interface more consistent with other X-Series instrument
family members.
(In models whose hardware does not provide for a "Fast Tuning" on page 1839
option, the settings for "Best Close-in" on page 1838 are used if "Fast Tuning" on
page 1839 is selected. This gives the fastest possible tuning for that hardware set.)
Auto
:FREQ:SYNT:AUTO ON
Selects the LO (local oscillator) phase noise behavior to optimize dynamic range and
speed for various instrument operating conditions. The selection rules are as
follows.
Auto Optimization Rules
X-Series instruments have several grades of LO, offering different configurations
when in the Auto Mode. The rules for Auto selection are as follows:
Models with Option Conditions Selection
EP0
Models with option EP0 have a two
stage local oscillator, which switches
to a single loop for fast tuning
(available in UXA)
Center frequency is < 699.9 kHz "Balanced" on

EP1
Models with option EP1 have a two-
loop local oscillator, which switches to
a single loop for fast tuning
