Offset ← DC Modulator characteristics
Applies a voltage offset on the supply voltage
, i.e. compensates a possible
offset from the external DC modulator. The envelope output voltage
reduced by this value to maintain the supply voltage V
cc
in the defined value range.

PA characteristics
Refer to the product documentation of the PA for information on its characteristics.
The following settings are required:
V

Min/Max ← PA characteristics
Sets or displays the minimum and maximum values of the supply voltage V
cc
, as
required by the used power amplifier (PA).
The value range of the supply voltage V
cc
is determined by the allowed peak-to-peak
driving voltage V

of the used external DC modulator and the enabled V
