To perform a basic sweep automatically
► Select [Auto Set] > "Auto All".
The R&S FSV/A configures the measurement according to the RF input signal and
immediately starts the selected measurement.
If the auto measurement does not provide the expected results, configure the mea-
surement manually as described next.
To perform one or more single sweeps
1. Configure the frequency and span to be measured ( "Frequency" dialog box, see
Chapter 8.3, "Frequency and Span Configuration", on page 358).
2. Configure the number of sweeps to be performed in a single measurement
( "Sweep Config" dialog box, see " Sweep/Average Count " on page 386).
3. If necessary, configure how the signal is processed internally ( "Bandwidth" dialog
box, see " Sweep Type " on page 387).
4. If necessary, configure a trigger for the measurement ( "Trigger/ Gate Config" dia-
log box, see Chapter 8.6, "Trigger and Gate Configuration", on page 391).
5. Define how the results are evaluated for display ( "Trace" dialog box, see Chap-
ter 9.5.1.2, "Trace Settings", on page 492).
6. If necessary, configure the vertical axis of the display ( "Amplitude" dialog box, see
Chapter 8.4, "Amplitude and Vertical Axis Configuration", on page 366).
7. To start the measurement, select one of the following:
● [RUN SINGLE] key
● "Single Sweep" softkey in the "Sweep" menu
The defined number of sweeps are performed, then the measurement is stopped.
While the measurement is running, the [RUN SINGLE] key is highlighted. To abort
the measurement, press the [RUN SINGLE] key again. The key is no longer high-
lighted. The results are not deleted until a new measurement is started.
8. To repeat the same number of sweeps without deleting the last trace, select the
"Continue Single Sweep" softkey in the "Sweep" menu.
To start continuous sweeping
1. If you want to average the trace or search for a maximum over more (or less) than
10 sweeps, configure the "Sweep/Average Count" ( "Sweep Config" dialog box,
see " Sweep/Average Count " on page 386).
2. To start the measurement, select one of the following:
● [RUN CONT] key
● "Continuous Sweep" softkey in the "Sweep" menu
