Making a Basic Measurement
Presetting the Spectrum Analyzer
Presetting the Spectrum Analyzer
Preset provides a known starting point for making measurements. The analyzer has three types of
preset:
Factory Preset Restores the analyzer to its factory-defined state.
User Preset Restores the analyzer to a user-defined state.
Mode Preset This type of preset restores the currently selected mode to a known state.
For details, see the User’s guide.
When
Preset Type is set to Factory, pressing the green Preset key triggers a factory preset. When
Preset Type is set to User, pressing Preset displays the softkeys Factory Preset, User Preset, and
Mode Preset (if applicable); you then select the preset you want. If Preset Type is set to Mode, but a
personality is not installed, pressing
Preset triggers a factory preset.
Creating a User Preset
If you constantly use settings which are not the factory defaults, use the following steps to create a
user-defined preset:
1. Set analyzer parameters as desired.
2. Press
System, Power On/Preset, Save User Preset to set the current parameters as the user
preset state.
3. Press
Preset to select User in the same softkey menu to enable user preset as an option.
Disabling User Preset
Go to the Power On/Preset menu (press
System, Power On/Preset) and select a Preset Type of
Factory or Mode.
