Range: for frequency range values, see the instrument's data sheet
Enter a value to set the instrument’s output frequency. Use abbreviations for faster entry (example: 1g = 1.000000000000 GHz).
If the frequency you enter here is within the frequency range determined by the Frequency Band and Transmit Device settings in the Waveform Setup Node, the corresponding ARFCN number is automatically entered in the Waveform Setup node. If the frequency you enter here falls outside the frequency range determined by the current Frequency Band and Transmit Device settings in the Waveform Setup node, the ARFCN cell in the Waveform Setup node displays --- and the Instrument node frequency setting is the active frequency.
