The softkey menu structured to this hardkey affects the channel setup.
Press this hardkey to access the “Frequency/Cal Fac” menu which allows
you to enter the frequency of the signal to be measured or the calibration
factor. Depending on the type of power sensor connected, and whether or
not a sensor calibration table is selected, the text on some softkeys may
appear grayed out. This indicates that they are not relevant in the power
meter’s current mode of operation. Table 3-1 details the relevant softkeys
in various modes of operation.

appropriate frequency unit. Entering a frequency using this
softkey is only possible when you have a sensor calibration table
selected or you are using an HP E-series power sensor.
