Increasing Sweep Speed
To Turn Off Spur Avoidance
When spur avoidance is on (preset default is off), the analyzer breaks each
sweep into segments. Between sweep segments, the analyzer stops and
changes internal frequencies to move mixing products. Since the analyzer
sweep is not interrupted when this feature is off, turn off spur avoidance to
increase sweep speed.
1. Press @ZKQ Spar Avoid Opt iains and look at the Spvr Avoid
softkey.
2. If the !Qw Avaid key is highlighted with a box around it, press the
#me key.
NOTE
If Spur Avoid must be used in your measurement, set the start frequency as high as possible to obtain
the fastest possible sweeps.
