In RTSA mode, the continuous sweep function is logically same as that in GPSA mode. 
Press this key to perform the continuous sweep or measurement operation. This 
setting is global to all the activated traces and the detector types. 
For details, refer to "Continue" in Chapter 2. 
Single 
In RTSA mode, the single sweep function is logically same as that in GPSA mode. 
Press this key to perform the single sweep or measurement operation. This setting is 
global to all the activated traces. 
Note: In RTSA mode, when performing the single measurement, the instrument will 
not stop sweeping until the sweep count has reached N. Wherein, N is determined by 
the result of "Avg. Number x (Acq/Trigger)" in the current measurement mode. 
During the single measurement, the trace data in the Normal view is updated for 
display in a real-time manner, whereas the trace history data in the Spectrogram 
view are not cleared. 
For details, refer to "Single" in Chapter 2.
