RBW, VBW and Sweep Time are interdependent settings that govern the usefulness of a
Spectrum Analyzer trace. These Soft Keys are controlled by inter-related action so that
changing the value of one changes one or both of the others to optimize the display and prevent
an invalid setting. RBW, VBW and Sweep Time can be set to AUTO or MANUAL operation.
Setting all three parameters to AUTO provides a useful representation of the signal to be
examined. When any one of these parameters is set manually, the Test Set selects the optimum
setting for the other two parameters according to internal setup tables.
