require to accurately measurement.

Better frequency 
resolution. 
Narrow band signal with stronger 
interference noise. 
8.  Set the Display Mode 
Press View to select “Half” (default) or “Full” display mode.  
  Half: the source channel and the FFT operation results are displayed 
separately. The time domain and frequency domain signals are displayed 
clearly. 
  Full: the source channel and the FFT operation results are displayed in the 
same window to view the frequency spectrum more clearly and to perform 
more precise measurement.  
9.  Set the Vertical Unit 
The vertical unit can be selected as dB/dBm or Vrms. Press Unit to select the 
desired unit and the default is dB/dBm. dB/dBm and Vrms use logarithmic mode 
and linear mode to display vertical amplitude respectively. If you need to display 
the FFT frequency spectrum in a relatively larger dynamic range, dB/dBm is 
recommended. 
10. Press Scale Reset to adjust the vertical scale of the operation results to the 
optimal value according to the current configuration. 
Tips 
  You can adjust the center frequency and horizontal scale at the same time 
using HORIZONTAL 
  SCALE. 
  Signals with DC components or deviation would cause error or deviation of the 
FFT waveform components. To reduce the DC components, set the “Channel 
Coupling” to “AC”. 
  To reduce the random noise and aliasing frequency components of repetitive 
or single pulse, set the “Acquisition Mode” of the oscilloscope to “Average”.
