1 Overview
This document outlines the operation and functionality of the BB60C and BB60A Signal Hound
spectrum analyzers. This document will guide you through the setup and operation of the software. You
can use this document to learn what types of measurements the BB60 is capable of, how to perform
these measurements with the software, and configure the software.
What’s New 1.1
Version 2.0.0 - With the release of the BB60C, we have fully updated our Signal Hound BB60 software
and API. Both the API and software interface will now work with both the BB60A and BB60C.
2 Preparation
The BB60 is a real-time high speed spectrum analyzer communicating with your PC over a USB 3.0
Super Speed link. It has 20 MHz of real-time bandwidth, tunes from 9 kHz to 6 GHz, collects 80 million
samples per second, and streams data to your computer at 140 MB/sec. By adding a high speed hard
drive to your PC or laptop (250 MB/s sustained write speed), the BB60A doubles as an RF recorder,
streaming all 80 million samples per second to disk.
Initial Inspection 2.1
Check your package for shipping damage before opening. Your box should contain a USB 3.0 Y-
cable, a CD-ROM, and a Signal Hound BB60.
