PROBE COMPENSATION
This can be used to compensate for losses associated with probe
points found on certain amplifiers. You can enter a value between
-99.9 and +99.9 dB. Probe compensation is added directly to signal
level measurements. The compensation value is indicated in the
upper left-hand corner of the measurement screens. There is no
indication, however, if the compensation value is zero.
Important
The PROBE COMPENSATION value does not affect INSTAL-
LATION or CHANNEL PLAN BUILD mode . Level measurements
made while checking an installation are uncompensated.
FREQUENCY TUNING STEP SIZE
This setting affects the increment/decrement step size when you
are tuning the frequency using the left and right arrows. You can
select a value between 25kHz and 100MHz in steps of 25kHz.
