„Sd-F“: short for SD memory card failure“. Try re-starting the NFA or re-formatting the memory card according to chapter 9, first paragraph. If necessary, replace SD memory card (max. 16 GB). - 2 - April 2020 © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH... -

For all measurement ranges, even when using an attenuator or amplifier, NFAsoft of- fers a comfortable conversion tool. The random noise will make it impossible to properly display or record measurement values below 0.1µW/m², though. - 3 - © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH April 2020... - Page 6 The resolution of the frequencies during the analysis of the (actually by their nature broad banded) peak values does not take into account phase information, so it’s practically a worst-case consideration. Tolerances are much higher than when using the tRMS analysis. - 4 - April 2020 © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH...
- Page 7 If the AC/DC input is in use, you can toggle between this and the mag- netic field measurement with these buttons. Extensive testing with classical power banks and lithium polymer batteries for flight models showed disappointing results. - 5 - © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH April 2020...

To lock, remove and lock the SD memory card while the desired set- tings are active and reinsert it. The data will still be recorded. IMPORTANT: Don't forget to “unlock” the SD memory card after finishing a “locked” long term recording! - 6 - April 2020 © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH... -

Please note that Li-Ion batteries, even when treated with care, will lose some of their original capacity within one or two years, and their typical life expectancy is 250-500 complete charge cycles. In this case always replace both batteries. - 7 - © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH April 2020... - Page 10 “FULL” appears on the display, OR discharged until the NFA switches itself off automati- cally.

Don’t forget to unlock the SD-card afterwards! Please differentiate: With „NFAsoft“ the firmware can be configured and the user set- tings stored in the file „CONFIG.NFA“. This has nothing to do with the firmware itself. - 15 - © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH April 2020... -

After switching off, wait at least until the red Status-LED goes out before switching it on again. Avoid ultra-short logs! Log for at least 10, better 30 seconds. The preliminary Firmware of NFA serial numbers below …0282 cannot be updated (new bootloader). - 16 - April 2020 © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH... - Page 19 You can save configurations as presets to a dropdown menu in NFsoft. What’s the purpose of the file types and where are they saved? “CONFIG.NFA” -> user configurations -> saved on the SD-card “NFAsoft.ini” -> Presettings for NFAsoft -> saved in the NFAsoft folder © Gigahertz Solutions GmbH April 2020...
