Opens a dialog box to define the bias current for each range, which is required to set

bias current can range from -10 mA to 10 mA. The actual bias current is lower because
of the forward voltage of the mixer diode(s).
The trace is adapted to the settings immediately so you can check the results. To store
the bias setting in the currently selected conversion loss table, select the Write to <CVL
table name> button.
