1.
Switching speed depends highly upon the hardware and controller that is used. Measurements were made with the M9420A in an M9018A chassis with the
M9037A embedded controller.
2. Mean time from IVI command until baseband amplitude changed by 5 dB
3. Mean time from IVI command until RF amplitude changed from 0 to -10 dBm
