Level characteristics
ALC modes
The SSG3000X series offer three ALC modes:
ALC STATE AUTO : The best suited ALC mode is set automatically.
ALC STATE ON: The level control loop is closed. This mode is suitable for CW, FM and PM.
ALC STATE SAMPLE & HOLD (S&H) : At every frequency and level change, The level control loop is closed about 3 ms and the level control voltage is sampled. The
level control voltage is the clamped. This mode is used internally while in ALC state AUTO for pulse modulation, AM modulation.
