INPut Subsystem 
The INPut subsystem controls the input characteristics of the RF inputs of the instrument. 
Commands of the INPut Subsystem 
– INPut<1|2>:ATTenuation 
– INPut<1|2>:ATTenuation:AUTO 
– INPut<1|2>:GAIN:STATe (option RF Preamplifier, B22) 
– INPut<1|2>:IMPedance 
– INPut<1|2>:UPORt[:VALue]? 
– INPut<1|2>:UPORt:STATe 
INPut<1|2>:ATTenuation 
 
This command programs the input attenuator. To protect the input mixer against damage from 
overloads, the setting 0 dB can be obtained by entering numerals, not by using the DEC 
command. 
The attenuation can be set in 5 dB steps. If the defined reference level cannot be set for the set 
RF attenuation, the reference level will be adjusted accordingly. 
In the default state with Spectrum Analyzer mode, the attenuation set on the step attenuator is 
coupled to the reference level of the instrument. If the attenuation is programmed directly, the 
coupling to the reference level is switched off.  
Parameter 
<numeric_value> in dB; range specified in data sheet 
Example 
INP:ATT 30dB 
Sets the attenuation on the attenuator to 30 dB and switches off the coupling to the reference 
level.
