4.01 kHz

Max

The maximum available FFT width is dependent on the IF Bandwidth option.  The maxim mum
available width is:

Option B10, 10 MHz;

Option B25, 25 MHz,

Option B40, 40 MHz.

[:SENSe]:SWEep:FFT:SPAN:RATio <integer>

[:SENSe]:SWEep:FFT:SPAN:RATio?

This is the legacy “FFTs per Span” command, because in the PSA, this is what you set rather
than the FFT Width.  The behavior of the analyzer when it receives this command is to compute
the “intended segment width” by dividing the Span by the FFTs/Span parameter, then
converting this intended width to an actual width by using the largest available FFT Width that is
still less than the intended segment width. The “Span” used in this computation is whatever the
Span is currently set to, whether a sweep has been taken at that Span or not.

More Information

An FFT measurement can only be performed over a limited span known as the “FFT segment”. 
Several segments may need to be combined to measure the entire span. For advanced FFT control
in the X-Series, you have direct control over the segment width using the FFT Width control.
Generally, in automatic operation, the X-Series sets the segment width to be as wide as possible,
as this results in the fastest measurements.
