Description
Specifies the RF input attenuation.
Although the attenuation level in the X-series instruments can be specified using absolute values,
you can never set attenuation below 10 dB using the DN parameter. This is a safety feature to
prevent inadvertent setting of attenuation to a level that could damage the instrument.
Signal levels above +30 dBm will damage the instrument.
