Markers
The signal generator provides up to 20 independent,
pre-settable markers, F0-F9 and M0-M9, that can be
used in the step sweep frequency mode for precise
frequency identification. Marker frequency accuracy
is the same as sweep frequency accuracy. The mark
-
ers are visible on a CRT display.

display at each marker frequency. The video
marker is either a +5V or a –5V pulse avail
