If the input power falls below the lower boundarymeasurement results become noisy due to quantization. If the inputpower exceeds the upper boundary, errors may appear due to limits ofthe input amplifier. You can manually choose a specific gain setting bydisabling the auto-gain function (i.e. TreeNo=3/VarNo=14 (section 10.2)AutoGainFlag = 0).Gain Max.
