Averaging
Controls the number of sweeps to average. Sweeps are averaged successively as they are made available, so the sig-
nal-to-noise ratio improves over time. Up to 100 sweeps can be averaged. Sweep data averaging is only available
when the “Continuous Sweep” option is checked.

Smoothing Window Size - Determines how many points to average before and after a center point.

(“Continuous Sweep” can be enabled or disabled) or even be changed while sweeping.
