Center Frequency and Span for Spectrum Analyzer ESA

Solved!
Go to solution

Hello All, 

I am asking one silly question but i tried many things didn't work out so asking you all.

I need to set the spectrum analyzer as follows:

RBW: 10Khz

Sweep:AUto

Span 2400Mhz

Ref Level -40 dBm

Trace 1: View

Trace 2: max Hold

Tarce 3 :min hold

Andt MAIN CENTER freq 65850kHz

 

But when i run my program all values are getting set ex CENTER FREQ it always sets as 1200Mhz. 

 

I dont know is there any automated adjustment that Center freq always come to appro to half of span????

If anyone can tell me the solution for this...

Thanks so much

Hi pals,

 

it looks like a problem with you external Hardware. Please contact the manufacturer of your Spectrum Analyzer or use the manual to find out if why your Spectrum Analyzer always change your settings.

Hi,

Thanks a lot....

i think so that there is any auto calculation happening  so it always cet center freq to app half of center freq when i run the labview program. But when i set manually it does set... So i thought its a problem in code....

Hi Pals,

 

even is there a problem with a single VI you using in your program you have to contact the manufacturer because he is accountable for the VIs for his hardware.

Hi all...

Got the solution the difference between center freq and span is too huge... So its not accepting....

Now i am getting the correct values.... Due to this huge range start freq of spectrum was going below range... That was the problem....

Thanks all....
