6.6.3 Default External Ref Freq
Restores the External Ref Freq to its default of 10 MHz.
When you set an External Ref Freq value with the Ext Ref Freq control, that
Frequency is persistent; is not affected by Mode Preset or Input/Output Preset, and
survives shutdown and power cycle. This control allows you to reset the External Ref
Freq to its default value.
NOTE
The persistence of the External Ref Freq is a new behavior as of firmware
version A.18.00, necessitating the addition of this control. In versions before
A.18.00, the frequency reset on a power cycle/restart. Thus, you may need to
use this command to retain backwards compatibility.
