18.4.2.2 Amplitude Range

Move Primary Up:

Move displayed range upward to show higher magnitudes

Move Primary Down:

Move displayed range downward to show lower magnitudes

Zoom Primary In:
Magnify displayed vertical range for most plot types; narrows magnitude range for Spectrograph

Zoom Primary Out:
Decrease magnification of vertical range for most plot types; widens magnitude range for Spectrograph

18.4.2.3 Banding

The BANDING submenu provides options for the horizontal (x‐axis) scaling of the RTA; whole-octave,

1/3-octave, 1/6-octave, 1/12-octave and 1/24‐octave resolutions.

18.4.3 Spectrograph Measurement Mode

The Spectrograph displays frequency content of an input signal over a period of time. Instead of displaying

results for one measurement at a time (whether averaged or instantaneous), as per the Spectrum display,

the Spectrograph displays a measurement history over an adjustable period of time.

A Spectrum analyzer displays magnitude values for each fractional octave frequency band indicated by

vertical bars of varying height; a Spectrograph indicates the “height” using a range of colors to indicate
higher or lower magnitude.

The Spectrograph displays three‐dimensional data (time, frequency, and energy) on a two‐dimensional plot

with time on the y‐axis, frequency on the x‐axis, and magnitude represented by color. Exactly which color
represents which magnitude value is determined by the magnitude range specified.
