Source
Amplitude
Allows you to access the Amplitude sub-menu to control various amplitude parameters of the
Source. The resolution of the Source amplitude parameters is coupled to match the minimum
resolution of the source when the source is acquired. When the source is released, the amplitude
parameter resolution reverts to default values.

Initial S/W Revision A.06.01
Amplitude
Allows you to adjust the power level of the selected source. Note that the actual amplitude is also
affected by the Amplitude Offset and Power Sweep parameters.

Dependencies If the requested setting of Source Amplitude causes the calculated external source start or stop
Amplitude to exceed the external source capability, a warning status message is generated,
“Data out of Range; clipped to source max/min” The “Show Source Capabilities and Settings”
menu can then be examined to check the source capabilities.
This parameter test and clip is also performed at source acquisition.
Preset –10.00 dBm (On Source Preset and Restore Input/Output Defaults)
Not affected by Mode Preset
State Saved Part of the Input/Output system, which means it is Loaded and Saved with state.
Min The range of the amplitude parameter is dependent on the amplitude range of the source that is
selected, and the settings of Amplitude Offset and Power Sweep.
Max The range of the amplitude parameter is dependent on the amplitude range of the source that is
selected, and the settings of Amplitude Offset and Power Sweep.
