The following paragraphs describe how to place the signal generator in fixed (non-swept) power level mode, select a power level for output, and activate level offset. Power level operations can consist of a single CW power level change, swept power level changes, to an ALC mode of operation—internal or fixed gain (ALC off). In addition, the signal generator provides a decouple function that allows decoupling of the step attenuator from the level setting.

You can select the ALC mode of operation as internal or fixed gain (ALC off). In addition, the signal generator provides a decouple function that allows decoupling of the step attenuator (if equipped) from the level setting.

Refer to the following sections for the level setting menus.
