Resolution Bandwidth (Res BW)

In SA Mode, the Res BW provides the ability to resolve, or see closely spaced
signals. The narrower (lower) the Res BW, the better the spectrum analyzer can
resolve signals. In addition, as the Res BW is narrowed, less noise is measured
by the spectrum analyzer ADC and the noise floor on the display lowers as a
result. This allows low level signals to be seen and measured. However, as the
Res BW is narrowed, the sweep speed becomes slower. See

How to set Res BW
— Press BW 2.

— Then choose from the following:
The current Res BW setting is shown at the bottom of the screen.
#Res BW x.xx XHz (#) means manual setting.
This setting could impact the accuracy of the measurement. See Specifications

Res BW.
—Auto Res BW is coupled to the frequency span. As the frequency span
is narrowed, the Res BW is also narrowed providing increased ability
to resolve signals.
To change this setting from Man to Auto, press Res BW twice.
—Man Enter a Res BW value using the numeric keypad, the
or the rotary knob. Then press a multiplier if necessary or press Enter
