For more information regarding the general functionality of the sequencer, see Chap-
ter 8.4, "Running a Sequence of Measurements", on page 90.
In the receiver application, you can select whether to:
●
Run a bargraph measurement each time the receiver application has its turn.
●
Run a scan each time the receiver application has its turn.
●
Skip measurements in the receiver application.
When you include the bargraph measurement in the sequence, IF analysis (including
the spectrogram) is also done. When you include the scan in the sequence, spectro-
gram data is also collected (and a peak search and a final measurement are performed
when you have defined a test sequence that covers these measurements).
Note the following effects of performing a scan in a sequence of measurements.
●
Stopping a scan or final measurement aborts that measurement and resumes the
measurement sequence in the next channel.
●
Interrupting a scan is not possible.
●
Interactive final measurements are not available.
Tip: Performing a continuous sequence with a single (bargraph or scan) measurement
resets max hold values every time the sequencer starts a measurement in that receiver
channel. To keep max hold values, use continuous measurements in the channel.
▶ To select the measurement to include in a sequence, select [SWEEP] > "Sequencer"
until the required measurement is highlighted blue.
If you want to include a bargraph measurement and a scan in the sequence of mea-
surements, you have to use two measurement channels.

See Chapter 15.5.2, "Measurement Sequences", on page 443.
9.2 Bargraph Configuration
Access: [MEAS CONFIG] > "Bargraph Config"
Alternatively, you can access the dialog box by clicking on the bargraph once.
The bargraph result display is designed for measurements on a single frequency. It is a
basic result display that shows the signal level at a particular frequency numerically
and graphically as a bargraph. The length of the bar depends on the signal level at the
current receiver frequency. If necessary, you can control the way the signal is evalu-
ated by selecting different detectors.
