List Menu

Enter List Power Allows the entry of an ALC output power correction value for a frequency in the frequency list.

 

Global Duel1

Automatically sets the dwell time for all points

 

 

in the frequency list to a user-specified value.

 

Global Offset

Automatically sets the ALC output power

 

 

correction value for all points in the frequency

 

 

list to a user-specified value.

 

Pt Trig Menu

Reveals the frequency list in the point trigger

 

 

menu.

 

A frequency list consists of two or more frequency points. A

 

frequency point can be any frequency value within the specified

 

frequency range of the synthesizer and must be entered before a value

 

for either ALC output power offset or dwell time is accepted. The

 

maximum number of frequency points in a frequency list is 801.

 

Creating a Frequency List

 

There are two methods of constructing a frequency list:

 

1. Use the Enter List Freq softkey to begin entering frequency

 

points. The list will be generated in the order the values are

 

entered.

 

 

2. If the minimum and maximum frequencies of the synthesizer

 

frequency range are not the endpoints desired for the frequency

 

list,use the Auto Fill Start and Auto Fill Stop softkeys

 

to,define the frequency list endpoints. Then, use either the

 

Auto Fill Incr or Auto Fill #Pts softkeys to create the list.

 

A list created by this method is ordered with the lowest frequency

 

as the first point and the highest frequency as the last point of the

 

frequency list.

 

 

Editing F’requency

Points

 

To add a frequency point to the list, place the active entry arrow -->

 

where you want the next frequency point to appear. The frequency

 

point is added directly after the value indicated by the arrow.

 

Lists created by the Auto Fill method are appended to an existing

 

list much the same way frequency points are added to a list. The

 

newly created list is added between the frequency point indicated by

 

the active entry arrow and the point directly after it.

Note

 

If adding a new list of frequencies causes the existing list to exceed

 

the maximum number of frequency points allowed (801), the new list

 

is not appended to the existing list. The error message TOO MANY

 

LIST PTS REQUESTED is displayed.
