Caution
To avoid the loss of data, GPIB settings, or current user instrument states that have not been permanently saved to
nonvolatile memory, the X-Series signal generator should always be powered down either via the instrument’s front
panel power button or the appropriate SCPI command. X-Series signal generators installed in rack systems and
powered down with the system rack power switch rather than the instrument’s front panel switch display a Error -310
due to the instrument not being powered down correctly.

To define a user preset, set the instrument up as desired and press

Makes the increment value of the current function the active entry.
Utility

Instrument Adjustments
The increment value and the step/knob ratio determine how much each
turn of the knob changes the active function value.
For example, if the increment value of the active function is 10 dB and the
step/knob ratio is 50 to 1, each turn of the knob changes the active
function by 0.2 dB (1/50th of 10 dB).
To change the amount for each turn of the knob, modify the increment
value, the step/knob ratio, or both.

Executes the ALC Modulator Bias Adjustment. When using
the ALC in open loop mode, this compensates for open loop
power drift due to temperature and humidity.
