ZVC Resolution
Available only, if a R&S RT-ZVC multi-channel power probe probe is connected to the
instrument.
Displays the current resolution, the time between two waveform samples, of the
R&S RT-ZVC multi-channel power probe channel.
Remote command:
ACQuire:ZRESolution? on page 1155
ZVC Record length
Available only, if a R&S RT-ZVC multi-channel power probe probe is connected to the
instrument.
Indicates the number of waveform samples that build the channel's waveform across
the acquisition time.
Remote command:
ACQuire:POINts:ZVALue? on page 1155
Resolution / Record length (Resolution dependency)
You can choose to keep constant either the resolution or the record length when you
adjust the time scale or acquisition time.
"Resolution"
With constant resolution, increasing the time scale also increases the
record length, and vice versa. You can limit the record length to a
maximum value.
"Record
length"
With constant record length, increasing the time scale coarsens the
resolution, that is, the time between two waveform samples gets lon-
ger.
Remote command:
ACQuire:POINts:AUTO on page 1110
Auto adjustment (Resolution dependency)
Prevents undersampling and ensures a sufficient resolution to acquire the correct
waveform if the time scale is changed. The setting takes effect if the changed parame-
ter - resolution or record length - reaches a limit. The instrument automatically keeps
this parameter constant at its limit, and changes the other parameter regardless of the
"Resolution / Record length" setting.

Remote command:
ACQuire:POINts:AADJust on page 1110
Record length limit (Resolution dependency)
Sets a limit for the record length to prevent very large records. This value is only avail-
able if "Auto adjustment" is on and a constant resolution is selected. If you increase the
time scale, the resolution remains constant and the record length increases until the
limit is reached. Further increase of the time scale changes the resolution and keeps
the record length limit.
