This property offsets the Upconverter Center Frequency (Hz) from the RF frequency. Use this property to keep the local oscillator (LO) leakage at a determined offset from the RF signal.

Note You cannot set the Upconverter Center Frequency (Hz) property or the Arb Carrier Frequency (Hz) property at the same time as the Upconverter Frequency Offset (Hz) property.
Note Resetting this property disables the upconverter frequency offset.
