ut signals from the lock-in amplifier. Since the lock-in ampli-
fier can output two kinds of output signals, set two signals in pairs.
If you select Acos/Asin, the detection signals in the lock-in amplifier are decom-
posed and output into the cos component and sin component, respectively.
If you select Mag/Phase, the amplitude and phase of the detection signals in the
lock-in amplifier are output.

Auto Sensitivity
When you click on this button, the lock-in amplifier sets an appropriate input
sensitivity for the current input signal by using the automatic sensitivity adjusting
function of the lock-in amplifier. However, if the amplitude of the input signal
changes after you had adjusted the sensitivity, you must readjust it.
•
Auto Phase
Just the same as Auto Sensitivity, when you click on this button, the lock-in ampli-
fier sets an appropriate reference phase so that the reference phase agrees with the
input signal phase by using the automatic phase adjusting function of the lock-in
amplifier.
•
Sensitivit
This sets signal-input sensitivity for the lock-in amplifier. The signal-input sensitiv-
ity determines the signal amplitude that can input into the lock-in amplifier. How-
ever, if you set too large sensitivity, output-signal precision from the lock-in
amplifier
decreases.
Usually, change the setting from a large value to a small value
during use, and set the largest p
saturated.
On WinSPM, set the input sensitivity within the range of 100 nV to 1 V.
