Default Settings
The instrument is set to a defined state with the PRESET key. With PRESET, all parameters and switch
states are preset, including those of deactivated operating modes. The default instrument settings
provide a reproducible initial basis for all other settings.However, functions that concern the integration
of the instrument into a measurement setup are not changed, e.g. IEC/IEEE bus address or reference
oscillator source settings.
Note:
Resetting the instrument to the factory state is possible in the Factory Preset - Setup Settings menu
of the menu.
When the instrument is switched on, it is not the preset state that is active, but rather the instrument
state that was set before the instrument was switched off. An exeption is the state of the RF output. The
state of the RF output power-on state can be set to be always off in the EMF menu of the RF block.
User-defined instrument states can be stored and called up in the File menu.
The following table gives an overview of the presets for the most important generator settings. The
other presets can be found in the information accompanying the IEC/IEEE-bus commands (chapter
"Remote Control Commands - Description").
The list below the table shows the settings that are not affected by the
PRESET key.
