SOURce Subsystem

The SOURce subsystem controls the signal characteristics of the
tracking generator.

Sets the Output Power Offset Correction

:SOURce:CORRection:OFFSet <rel_ampl>
:SOURce:CORRection:OFFSet?
Specifies an offset for the displayed output power level. An offset power
level can be added to the displayed level to compensate for system
losses (for example, cable loss) or gains (for example, preamplifier gain.)
This offset does not change the power out of the source, it only changes
the display so that it reads out the actual power delivered to the device
under test.
