SA (Spectrum Analyzer) Mode (Option 233–Mixed Analyzers)
SA Mode Settings
Single / Continuous / Restart
This setting determines whether the FieldFox measures continuously or only 
once each time the Single
 or Run / Hold +/- button is pressed. Use Hold / 
Single or to conserve battery power or to allow you to save or analyze a 
specific trace. 
How to set Single or Continuous
—Press Sweep 3.
— Then choose one of the following:
—Continuous
 
——ON
 Causes the SA to make continuous sweeps. This is the 
typical setting for making measurements. Each Run / Hold +/- 
press causes the SA to toggle between continuous sweep and 
Hold. 
——OFF
 Causes the SA to Hold. Each Run / Hold +/- or Single 
press causes the SA to make ONE sweep, then Hold. The Hold 
annotation changes to an arrow --> while the sweep occurs.
—Single
 Automatically sets Continuous OFF and causes the SA to make 
ONE sweep, then Hold.
—Restart
 Resets the Average counter to 1. The Average counter also is 
used with MaxHold and MinHold Trace States. Learn more in 
“Average Count” on page 143.
Points 
Points is the number of measurements that are displayed along the X-axis. The 
higher number of data points, the better the ability to resolve closely spaced 
signals and the slower the sweep speed. 
How to set number of points
—Press Sweep 3 
—Then Points [current setting] 
— Then choose from: 
— 101 | 201 | 401 | 601 | 801 | 1001
