This has the effect of restricting the smallest and largest changes
that can be made in parallel frequency mode through the associ-
ated frequency discretisation (step size) and value range. If large
changes to frequency are required, high gain should be used. If high
resolution is required, small gain should be used. The outcome of
different gain settings are shown in Table 9.1.

Note that the frequency gain can presently only be set before the
table is populated, and cannot be changed mid-sequence. It is there-
fore important to ensure that the desired frequency range fits entirely
within the accessible range.
