0.3-3 GHz SPECTRUM COMPACT (FW V5.2.6)

2.8 TRACE

The TRACE menu allows adjusting the swept spectrum curve by selecting the most
suitable DETECTOR and trace type.
Entering the TRACE menu
The DETECTOR determines which of the detected input power levels are displayed
on the screen, since the Spectrum Compact does several measurements of the same
frequency range during each sweep.
The available detectors are:

DETECTOR: AVG
Displays the averaged value over the values detected (the default detector).

DETECTOR: MAX
Displays the highest detected input power level values.

DETECTOR: MIN
Displays the lowest detected input power level values.
For most accurate power measurements AVG detector is recommended. If
utilizing the MAX or MIN detector, please note that a narrower VBW must
be used (see
for the current RBW, there is a warning displayed on screen, VBW indication
under graph is
The currently used detector is indicated in
RBW & VBW). In case the manually selected VBW is too wide
red and indication "UNCAL" is put under the battery symbol.
