About RF Input Protection
The following paragraphs describe how the analyzer behaves to protect the RF input during power-off,
power-on, power-on self test (POST), and attenuator switching:
When switched off (or when power is removed), the RF input is electronically disconnected from the
input connector. The analyzer always has a minimum 10 dB attenuation applied during power-up and
power-on-self-test. This is accomplished by always switching the attenuation control to Auto during
