The KS, command specifies the maximum signal level that is applied to the input mixer for a signal that is equal to
or below the reference level.
The effective mixer level is equal to the reference level minus the input attenuator setting. When KS, is activated,
the effective mixer level can be set from - 10 dBm * to - 70 dBm in 10 dB steps. Instrument preset (IP) selects -
10 dBm.
The program line below sets the mixer level to - 40 dBm
OUTPUT 718;"KS, - 40DM;"
As the reference level is changed, the coupled input attenuator automatically changes to limit the maximum signal
at the mixer input to - 40 dBm for signals less than or equal to the reference level.
The functions of the KS, and ML commands, and the (,., ($ keys are identical. See also AT
In the extended reference level range, the effective mixer level can be set to 0 dBm.
