Overloading
At a reference level of -13 dBm and at an internal generator output level of the same
value, the R&S FPL1000 operates without overrange reserve. That means the
R&S FPL1000 is in danger of being overloaded if a signal is applied whose amplitude
is higher than the reference line. In this case, an overload message is displayed in the
status line.
Overloading can be avoided as follows:
●
Reducing the output level of the internal generator ("Level" on page 291)
●
Increasing the reference level (Reference Level in the "Amplitude" menu)

The internal generator signal is only available if the optional Internal Generator
R&S FPL1-B9 is installed.
The preview in the dialog box visualizes the configured signal from the internal genera-
tor.
