Effects of Changing Analysis Frequency, Blocksize, or Nyquist Factor

The effects indicated by the these two tables pertain to changing the Analysis Frequency while
the Blocksize and Nyquist Factor remain unchanged, and visa versa. If the Analysis

Frequency, Blocksize, and/or Nyquist Factor are changed [for the same acquisition], then the

effect on the other variables can differ, depending on the magnitude and direction of change

of those variables.

the associated input signals will pass through a 0.1 Hz or a 1 Hz High Pass Filter, depending
on which radio button is selected.
