How do I know if I’ve selected the correct frequency band for 4480A measurements?

October 09, 2024 19:44

The selected frequency band (Low or High) is indicated on the top row text of the display.

However, it’s important to manually ensure that the input signal falls within the selected band range, as the Model 4480A does not automatically detect the signal frequency or notify the user if the wrong band is selected.
