How to Set the Maximum Power for the Sweep Range
Pressing [Pmax/Swp] sets the power to the maximum for the selected
sweep range. Alternatively, you can set a power level in the way described
in "How to Set the Output Power of a CW Signal" on page 122. Pressing
[Pmax/Swp] ensures the power will be constant for the whole sweep.
