Oscillator frequency modulation filter control command
The value of n sets the oscillator frequency modulation voltage low-pass filter
control in the range 0 to 10. The value of 0 gives the widest bandwidth for this filter,
with the value of 10 the lowest.
In fixed point mode n sets the oscillator frequency modulation span frequency in
mHz. The range of n is 0 to 150,000,000 representing 0 to 75 kHz; in floating point
mode n sets the span frequency in Hz. The range of n is 0 to 1.5E5.
NOTE: The span frequency plus the center frequency cannot exceed 150.0kHz;
the center frequency must also be greater than the span frequency.
The value of n sets the oscillator frequency modulation span voltage; in fixed point
mode n is an integer in the range 0 to +10000, corresponding to a range from
0.000 V to 10.000 V, and in floating point mode it is in volts.
NOTE: The span voltage plus the center voltage cannot exceed
Reference frequency meter
If the lock-in amplifier is in the external reference source modes, the FRQ command
causes the lock-in amplifier to respond with 0 if the reference channel is unlocked, or
with the reference input frequency if it is locked.
If the lock-in amplifier is in the internal reference source mode, it responds with the
frequency of the internal oscillator.
In fixed point mode the frequency is in mHz, and in floating point mode the
frequency is in Hz.
Oscillator frequency sweep start frequency
Sets the start frequency for a subsequent sweep of the internal oscillator frequency,
in the range 0 to 150 kHz.
In fixed point mode, n is in millihertz, and in floating point mode n is in hertz.
