Set up Load Impedance
To set the load impedance, use the Output menu.
Quick Tips
■ The load impedance is applied to the amplitude, offset and high/low level settings.
■ When dBm is currently specified for output amplitude units, the amplitude units setting is automatically changed to V
pp
 
if you select high impedance.
■ Output impedance is always set to 50 Ω.
1. Push the front-panel Sine > Continu-
ous button to display the Sine screen 
in this example.
2. Push the front-panel Top Menu   
button, and then push the Output 
Menu bezel button.
3. The Output Menu is displayed.
4. To set the load impedance, push Load 
Impedance.
5. The Load Impedance submenu is 
displayed.
6. To adjust the load impedance, select 
Load. You can set the load impedance 
to any value from 1 Ω to 10 kΩ. The 
default is 50 Ω.
