Controlling the RF Attenuator
Depending on the selected reference level, the R&S FSH sets the attenuator on the RF input to a
suitable value. It offers two modes: one for the highest possible sensitivity (LOW NOISE) and one for
the lowest possible intermodulation products (LOW DISTORTION). The difference between the two
modes is that the attenuation that the R&S FSH sets for the RF attenuator is 10 dB higher for LOW
DISTORTION than for LOW NOISE.
