Secure Data Option (Option 7)

For highly secure data handling requirements, this software option prevents the storing of measurement setup or data information onto any
internal file storage location. Instead, setup and measurement information is stored ONLY to the external USB memory location. A simple factory
default reset prepares the Spectrum Master for transportation while the USB memory remains behind in the secure environment. The Spectrum
Master cannot be switched between secure and non-secure operation by the user once configured for secure data operation.

AM/FM/PM Demodulation Analyzer Option (Option 509)

Spectrum Master comes with AM/FM/SSB audio demodulation standard. By adding Option 509, the instrument becomes capable of measuring,
analyzing, and displaying key modulation parameters of RF Spectrum, Audio Spectrum, Audio Waveform, and Demodulation Summary. The RF
Spectrum View displays the spectrum analyzer with carrier power, frequency, and occupied BW. Audio Spectrum shows the demodulated audio
spectrum along with the Rate, RMS deviation, Pk-Pk/2 deviation, SINAD, Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), and Distortion/Total. Each
demodulation also includes an Audio Waveform oscilloscope display that shows the time-domain demodulated waveform. A summary display
provides a list of all the RF and demodulation parameters.
