If the acquisition hardware does not support the default Info BW, then the Info BW
will be set to the closest value that the acquisition hardware can support.
3.1.9.4 Frame
Enables you to set frame structure for measurement.
Search Length
Defines the time length that the instrument searches for a burst and/or sync word.
There are two Search Length modes:
–
Manual: Lets you manually set the Search Length
–
Automatic: Sets Search Length automatically according to Meas Interval, Meas
Offset and Symbol Rate (longest Segment for multiple Segment case). This is
recommended mode for wide band signal (>1GHz) analysis, to avoid
unnecessary long Search Length setting leads to slow measurement speed
