Grayed-out if microwave preselector is off
–
Grayed-out if entirely in Band 0, that is, if Stop Freq is lower than about 3.6 GHz
–
Grayed-out if entirely above 50GHz, that is, if Start Freq is higher than 50GHz

Blank in models that do not include a preselector, such as Option503. If the command is sent in
these instruments, it is accepted without error, and the query always returns 0

Internal Preamp
Accesses a menu of controls for the internal preamps. Turning on the preamp gives
a better noise figure, but a poorer inter-modulation distortion (TOI) to noise floor
dynamic range. You can optimize this setting for your measurement.
The instrument takes the preamp gain into account as it sweeps. If you sweep
outside of the range of the preamp, the instrument will also account for that. The
displayed result always reflects the correct gain.
For some measurements, when the preamp is on and any part of the displayed
frequency range is below the lowest frequency for which the preamp has
specifications, a warning condition message appears in the status line. For example,
