The "Frequency" tile indicates the reference frequency, current frequency offset
and multiplier values, and phase offset value.
In the "RF Frequency" dialog, you can configure:
● RF frequency, incl. an offset or multiplication factor of a downstream instrument
● The step size for varying the frequency with the rotary knob.
The remote commands required to define the settings are described in Chap-
ter 12.15.3, "SOURce:FREQuency subsystem", on page 454.

Frequency
Sets the RF frequency.
This frequency is output at the RF 50 Ω connector. It does not consider an Offset or
multiplication factor (Multiplier).
See "RF frequency and level display with a downstream instrument" on page 59.
Note: Suppressed values in the status bar
For security concerns or certain operating modes, you can hide the frequency and
level display in the status bar.
●
The display has been disabled for security reasons.
See:
– Annotation Frequency
– Annotation Amplitude
●
The display is disabled when list mode is running, see Chapter 6, "List and sweep
mode", on page 112.
Remote command:
[:SOURce<hw>]:FREQuency[:CW|FIXed] on page 455
Offset
Sets the frequency offset.
This value represents the frequency shift of a downstream instrument, like for example
a mixer.
The "Frequency" value displayed in the status bar is the resulting frequency, as it is at
the output of the downstream instrument. The frequency at the R&S SMB100B RF out-
put is not changed.
See "RF frequency and level display with a downstream instrument" on page 59.
