(Mech) Atten Step
This controls the step size used when making adjustments to the input attenuation.
This key is labeled
Mech Atten Step
models. In the dual attenuator configuration, this key only affects the step size of the mechanical
attenuator.

Max Mixer Level
Controls the limitation on the Ref Level for a given attenuation setting, and therefore also interacts with
the Auto rules for selecting the attenuation as a coupling from the reference level.

Note this feature works like a 1-N choice from the front panel, but it takes a
specific value (in dB) when used remotely. The only valid values are 2 and 10.
Blanked in CXA and EXA if option FSA (2 dB steps) is not present. If
blanked, attempts to set it via SCPI will yield an error.
When the attenuation step size changes, the current mechanical attenuation
value is adjusted (if necessary) to be quantized to the new step size. That is, if
step is set to 10 dB, mech atten is increased if necessary so it is a multiple of
10 dB
PXA and MXA: 2 dB
EXA and CXA: 10 dB (2 dB with option FSA)
