6 Input/Output
6.1 RF Source
When the frequency offset is set to a value other than zero (0) and you enter a new
frequency value under Source, Frequency, Frequency, the displayed frequency will
be the same as the value entered and the RF output frequency will be equal to the
value entered minus the offset value as follows:
Output frequency = entered frequency – offset frequency
Displayed frequency = output frequency + offset frequency
Displayed frequency = entered frequency
Where:
–
entered frequency equals the frequency entered under Source, Frequency,
Frequency
–
offset frequency equals the value previously entered and set under Source,
Frequency, Freq Offset
Remote Command

:SOURce:FREQuency:OFFSet?
Example
:SOUR:FREQ:OFFS 0 Hz
Dependencies Unavailable, and grayed-out, when List Sequencer is ON

6.1.9.7 Freq Increment
Changes the step size for the RF Output Frequency function. Once an increment size
has been selected and the RF Output Frequency function is active, the step keys
(and the UP|DOWN parameters for RF Frequency from remote commands) change
the RF Output Frequency by the increment set value.
This feature exists in EXG and MXG.
