Resolution - Keysight N9912A User Manual

This setting can be changed at any time without affecting calibration accuracy.
NOTE Averaging is often used to increase the dynamic range of a measurement. To achieve
the highest dynamic range, select NA mode and reduce the IF Bandwidth setting.
Learn more about dynamic range on page 50.
How to set Trace Averaging
 Press BW 2 .
 Then
 Enter a value using the numeric keypad. Enter 1 for NO averaging.
 Press Enter.
 While Trace Averaging is in process, press Sweep 3 then
Single or Continuous Measure
This setting determines whether the FieldFox measures continuously or only once
each time the
allow you to save or analyze a specific measurement.
This setting can be changed at any time without affecting calibration accuracy.
How to set Single or Continuous
 Press Sweep 3.
 Then choose one of the following:
 You can also use Run / Hold +/- to toggle between Single and Continuous.
Resolution (Number of Data Points)
Data points are individual measurements that are made and plotted across the X-
axis to form a trace. Select more data points to increase measurement resolution.
However, more data points require more time to complete an entire measurement
sweep.
When the Resolution is changed after a calibration is performed, the cal becomes
interpolated. Learn more on page 64.
How to set Resolution
 Press Sweep 3.
 Then Resolution.
 Then choose one of the following:
 Using SCPI, Resolution can be set to any number of points between 3 and 10001.
