It shouldbe noted that the sweep time alone is a multiple of the time required for travelling and transmittingthe measurement curve. This may take several seconds, especially if the span to be shown is largeand the resolution bandwidth is small, it may take several seconds. In addition, the sweep time ismultiplied by the value set at "Average Count" if "Average" is used.Transmission Time19.3.4The time for the transmission of a measurement curve from the spectrum analyzer to the PCmainly depends on which transmission interface is used. The transmission of a measurementcurve with 1,000 measuring points only takes a few milliseconds if a GPIB and VXI is used. Incontrast, the transmission takes several seconds if the RS232 interface with a small baud rate isused.Storage Requirements for the Measurement19.4Both the hard-disk storage and the RAM storage must be large enough for storing and showing ascan's measurement results.The storage requirements depend on the:- number of measuring points in the space- number of points per trace- vertical resolution of the spectrum analyzerPlease note that when using Windows as a 32-bit operating system, no more than 2 GB of RAMstorage is assigned to the individual programs.
