1. 8563E, 8564E, 8565E require Option 006 for operation below 9 kHz.
2. 8560E, 8561E, 8562E minimum frequency in AC coupled mode is 100 kHz. In DC
coupled mode minimum frequency is 30 Hz.
3. -10 °C to +55 °C, referenced to 25 °C

5. N = harmonic mixing mode number
6. Frequency reference accuracy = aging x time since last adjustment + initial
achievable accuracy + temperature stability
7. Short term warm-up accuracy factors have been included in this calculation.
