Refer to the SCPI Command
Reference.
Opens the
Atten/ALC
Control
menu.
Enables the optimize signal-to-noise ratio state (Optimize S/N) On or Off.
The optimize signal–to–noise softkey changes the attenuator and alc setting to provide optimal
signal–to–noise performance; it does not change the RF output power.
Caution: When the optimize signal-to-noise ratio state is enabled, some increased levels of
harmonic distortion can occur. This increased harmonic distortion could degrade ACPR and EVM.
Note: This mode is mutually exclusive with attenuator hold (Atten Hold), and any modulation type. A
settings conflict error will be generated if attentuator hold or any modulation is activated when
optimize signal–to–noise is active (On).
