Int Preamp 
On Off
Agilent E444xA with Option 1DS and H26 turns the internal preamps on and off. Pressing 
Int Preamp (On) results in a correction being applied to compensate for the gain of the 1DS 
preamp so that amplitude readings show the value at the input connector. To apply 
corrections to the H26 Highband Preamp amplitude readings, corrections are manually 
applied and are explained in the section titled “Accessing the Flatness Compensation 
Table” on page 3-5. When the preamps are on, a PA indication appears on the left side of 
the display.
The lowband preamp is specified to operate over a 1 MHz to 3 GHz frequency range and 
the highband preamp is specified to operate from 3 GHz to the upper frequency limit of the 
instrument
