- | ==3.1 Control Bar== | + | |
- | Above the plot planes where the Single and Run acquisition buttons are located is the control bar. To the right of the acquisition controls is the Scale drop down menu. Click on the arrow to select the bottom axis of the lot plane to be linear or logarithmic. | + | |
- | ---- | + | |
- | To the right of the Scale menu is the Start frequency drop down menu. Click the arrow to display the menu and choose a starting frequency. The desired starting frequency can also be manually typed into the text field. Choose from 1mHz up to 10Mhz. | + | |
- | ---- | + | |
- | To the right of the Start frequency drop down menu is the Stop frequency drop down menu. Click the arrow to display the menu and choose a stopping frequency. The desired stopping frequency can also be manually typed into the text field. Choose from 1mHz up to 10Mhz. | + | |
- | ---- | + | |
- | To the right of the Stop frequency drop down menu is the Samples drop down menu. Click the arrow to display the menu and choose the number of samples per sweep. The desired sample amount can also be manually typed into the text field. Choose from 10 to 10k samples. | + | |

- | ==3.2 Configuration Panel== | + | |
- | To the right of the plot planes is the configuration panel. The top window selects the sweeping signal source and is WaveGen 1 by default. To change to WaveGen 2 or an external source, click the utilities icon and select the desired channel. To apply a DC offset or change the sweep wave amplitude, click the drop down menus labeled Offset and Amplitude, respectively. | + | |
- | ---- | + | |
- | Below the signal source window is the Magnitude plot configuration window. By default, the units are decibels with a ceiling of 10dB and a floor of -90dB. These parameters can be changed by selecting the drop down menus labeled Units, Top, and Bottom, respectively. | + | |
- | ---- | + | |
- | Below the Magnitude plot configuration window is the Phase plot configuration window. By default, the Offset and Range is set to 0 degrees and 360 degrees, respectively. To change these values, click the drop down menus titled Offset and Range, respectively. | + | |
- | ---- | + | |
- | Below the Phase plot configuration window are two Custom measurement windows. By default, these windows are deselected. To add a custom measurement, | + | |
- | ---- | + | |
- | Below the Custom/Add channel buttons are the Channel 1 and channel 2 configuration windows. By default, the Offset and Gain parameters are set to 0 volts and 1x, respectively. To change these values click on or type in the Offset or Gain text fields, respectively. | + | |
