Figure 5-1. Relationship Between Frequency Span, Sweep Time, and Number of Points
Note the following in the graph above:
As the frequency span decreases, the sweep time generally decreases.

If you are viewing both measurement channels but only need one, you can
decrease measurement time by turning one of the channels off.
Select the channel you wish to turn off with either the (j-1) or C-2)
