Notes
- The span and bandwidth of the spectral display can be changed while viewing a Live Raster
Waterfall. However, whenever the spectral display is changed, the waterfall data will be cleared
and a new waterfall will begin, unless Detail Zoom (see page 45) is turned on.
- The speed with which the Live Raster Waterfall data is captured and displayed will vary
depending on the span of the RF spectrum; the narrower the span, the more quickly the data
will be captured and displayed.
- Once the size of the Live Raster Waterfall has exceeded the memory buffer size, older traces will
be discarded for each new trace added.
- If the realtime trace is not displayed, turning on the Live Raster Waterfall will also automatically
turn on the realtime trace.
