1. Push BW to bring
up the resolution
bandwidth side menu. This allows you to set
the smallest frequency difference that the
instrument can
discern in the frequency axis.
Bandwidth
2. Push RBW Mode
to select either Auto or
Manual.
Auto sets the resolution bandwidth
automatica
lly as you change the span. The
default behavior is RBW = Span/1000.
Manual allows you to set your own
resolution
bandwidth.

The choices are: Kaiser, Rectangular,
Hammin

The RF
bandwidth FFT feature provides six windows. Each offers a trade-off between frequency resolution and magnitude
accuracy. The choice of which window to use depends upon what you want to measure and your source’s signal
characteristics. Use the following guidelines to select the best window:
