Mode Setup
Swp Type Rule
Changes the Auto rules for determining whether the instrument uses FFT or Swept mode (this can
be manually overridden). FFT mode offers substantially faster measurements in some cases.
The HP8566A/B, 8568A/B series did not have FFT mode capability, so most accurate emulation
requires that the instrument preserves Swept mode, unless you manually override that setting.
The 8560-series analyzers use both FFT and Swept mode, in which case “Legacy” is equivalent to
“Dynamic range”.

Limit Swp Time
Allows you to constrain the sweep time to no less than the minimum sweep time of the legacy
instrument.

If set to ON, the sweep time is constrained to no less than the value listed below.
l
If set to OFF, no constraint is applied.
