When selected, use the numeric keys to modify the parameters directly.
For example, select “Center Freq”, input the desired figure and select
proper unit to change the center frequency.
2. State Switching
Press the corresponding menu key to switch between the sub-options.
For example, press “Signal Track” to enable or disable the signal tracking
function.
3. Enter Lower Menu (with parameter)
Press the corresponding menu key to enter the lower menu and change

the CF Step.
6. State Selection
Press the corresponding menu key to modify the parameter and return to
the menu one level up. For example, press “MARKER” “NORMAL” to
select normal state. It means “MARKER” is in normal state.
2.6 Parameter Setting
Users can enter the desired parameter values using the numeric keys, knob, or direction keys.
This section describes the three methods of parameter setting through an example (to set the
center frequency to 800 MHz).
1. Use the numeric keyboard
1) Press “FREQ”Center Freq;
2) Input “800” using the numeric keys;
3) Select “MHz” by selecting the desired unit from the popup menu.
2. Use the knob
When the parameter is editable (namely when the parameter is selected), turn the knob clockwise
to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the parameter value at specified step.
1) Press “FREQ” Center Freq;
2) Rotate the knob until the parameter is set to a certain value (800 MHz).
3. Use the direction keys
When the parameter is editable (namely when the parameter is selected), you can increase or
decrease the parameter value at specific step using the direction keys.
1) Press “FREQ” Center Freq;
2) Press up/down direction key until the parameter is set to a certain value (800 MHz).
Note: in the storage function, the direction keys can also be used to select the current path or file.

3.1 Basic Settings
3.1.1 FREQ
Set the frequency parameters of the analyzer. The analyzer sweeps within a specified frequency
range, and the sweep is restarted every time you change the frequency parameters.
The frequency range of a channel can be expressed by either of two groups of parameters: Start
Frequency and Stop Frequencyfstart/fstop; or Center Frequency and Spanfcenter/ fspan. If any
of the parameters is changed, the others would be adjusted automatically in order to ensure the
coupling relationship among them:
centerf
=
/2stop startff
spanf
=
stop startff
Center Freq
Set the center frequency of the current channel. Press this key to switch to center frequency input
mode and the center frequency is displayed at the lower left and right sides of the grid
respectively.
Key Points:
• The start and stop frequencies vary with the center frequency when the span is constant.
• Changing the center frequency horizontally shifts the current channel and the adjustment is
limited by the specified frequency range.
• In Zero Span mode, the start frequency, stop frequency and center frequency are always
the same.
• You can modify this parameter using the numeric keys, knob or direction keys. Refer to
“Parameter Setting” for more details.

Start Freq
Set the start frequency of the current channel. Press this key to switch to start/stop frequency
input mode and the start and stop frequencies are displayed at the lower left and right sides of the
grid respectively.
Key Points:
• The span and center frequency vary with the start frequency. The change of span would
affect other system parameters. For more details, please refer to “Span”.
