Improving Frequency Resolution and Accuracy
Using the frequency counter to improve frequency
resolution and accuracy.
1 Press [PRESET]. (Factory Preset)
2 Input a signal (1 GHz, –30 dBm) to the
analyzer’s RF IN connector.
3 Set the center frequency to 1 GHz and the span
to 5 MHz:
4 Press [MARKER] > {More (1 of 2)} > {Mode} > {Freq
Count} to turn the frequency counter on.
5 Move the marker by rotating the knob, to a point
half- way down the skirt of the signal response.
6 Press [MARKER] > {More (1 of 2)} > {Mode} >
{Normal} to turn off the marker counter.

NOTE
Marker count will properly function only on CW signals or
discrete spectral components. The marker must be > 40
dB above the displayed noise level.
