steps from 1kHz to a maximum of 48% of the sample rate. Press the
repeatedly (or hold it down) to reduce the tone frequency in 10Hz steps from
1kHz to 100Hz. Below 100Hz (0.1kHz), the step size changes to 1Hz until the
minimum tone frequency of 1Hz (0.001kHz) is reached.
If a number between 0.0 and –120.0 is displayed, it is a Level. If a number
between 0.001 and 47.0 is displayed, it is a Frequency. If in doubt, press the
