Agilent Spectrum Visualizer (ASV) Software

This PC-based software package connects to the scope
via USB or ethernet connection and uses the Agilent
I/O libraries to communicate. It provides advanced FFT
frequency domain analysis at a cost-effective price as well
as spectrum and spectrogram analysis with an intuitive
user interface that RF engineers are familiar with.
Tools include:

Spectrum Measurements

• Power (dBm) vs. frequency

• Horizontal (x-axis): Specify center frequency and
frequency span, or start and stop frequencies
• Vertical (y-axis): Specify reference level (dBm) and
scale (dB/div)
• Settable resolution bandwidth
• Flat top, Gaussian, or Hanning windows applied to the
time domain data for the FFT analysis
• Marker to peak amplitude, and marker to center
frequency.
• Marker peak search can be enabled for time-varying
signals
• Multiple marker, with delta X and delta Y readouts

Acquisition and Display Modes

• Free Run (continuous ), Triggered, Stop, Single, Preset
• Triggered mode: specify trigger power level (dBm),
single or continuous sweep
• Enable/disable y-axis label
• Enable/disable main trace display
• Max hold display mode
• Gated Measurements
• Multiple viewing options

- Spectrogram

- waterfall

- 3D

• Changeable scaling settings on main window
• Local language support
• Multiple oscilloscopes can be configured to allow user
to rapidly switch between multiple instruments

Arbitrary Waveform Generator Source Control

• 20 MHz sine wave
• 10 MHz square wave
• Pulsed waveform
• WaveGen source settings can be altered while ASV is
running for interactive signal source and analysis
capability
