Log-Pwr Avg (Video) Sets the logarithmic (decibel) scale for all filtering and averaging
processes. This scale is also referred to as "Video" because it is the most common display
and analysis scale for the video signal within a spectrum analyzer.
Example
Key Path
Pwr Avg (RMS) Sets the signal power level (the square of the magnitude) as the scale for
the filtering and averaging processes. This scale is sometimes called RMS because the
resulting voltage is proportional to the square root of the mean of the square of the voltage.
