measurement dynamic range. In comparison, selecting Mixer as Your device type puts the
analyzer into broadband detection mode, enabling frequency translation measurements. This
capability allows new users to start making measurements with as few as four keystrokes.

example, selecting source frequency range or output power. The source keys also control
sweep time, number of points, and sweep triggering.

CONFIGURE The configure keys control receiver and display parameters. These parameters include
receiver bandwidth and averaging, display scaling and format, marker functions, and
instrument calibration.

You can also use the front panel knob for making continuous adjustments to parameter
values, while the
m
and
0
keys allow You to change values in steps.
