Parameter 
Remarks 
Default 
center frequency - span/2 
Range 
0 Hz to (Fmax – 3.125 kHz) 
Unit 
GHz, MHz, kHz, Hz 
Knob Step 
step = span/200, Min = 1 Hz 
Left/Right Arrow Key Step 
Up/Down Arrow Key Step 
CF step 
Stop Freq 
Sets the stop frequency of the current frequency channel. 
Remarks: 
  When you modify the stop frequency, the center and start frequency will be 
changed if the span remains to be unchanged. 
  You can use the numeric keys, the knob, or arrow keys to modify this parameter; 
you can also use the touch screen to modify the parameter. 
Table 5-3 Stop Frequency 
Parameter 
Remarks 
Default 
center frequency + span/2 
Range 
3.125 kHz to Fmax 
Unit 
GHz, MHz, kHz, Hz 
Knob Step 
step = span/200, Min = 1 Hz 
Left/Right Arrow Key Step 
Up/Down Arrow Key Step 
CF step 
CF Step 
Changes the step size for the center frequency. Changing the center frequency by a 
constant step-size value switches the channel to be measured continuously. 
Remarks: 
  Set a proper CF step value, and then select the center frequency. Use the 
Up/Down arrow key to switch the measurement channel at a fixed step size. 
Thus, the instrument can sweep the adjacent channels manually. 
  You can use the numeric keys, the knob, or arrow keys to modify this parameter; 
you can also use the touch screen to modify the parameter.
