DS-2000 Frequently Asked Questions
Question number FAQ-0659
When saving the power spectrum in text format using the DS-0221, why is the frequency value not equal to "1/800" of the frequency range (when the sample count is set to 2048 points)?
This can be achieved by setting the "Enhance function: ON" in the search function on the [Cursor Settings] page, which can be opened via "Data Display → Cursor Settings," and then saving as a TXT file. When the enhancement function is ON, the values are displayed with increased frequency resolution. Since saving as a TXT file saves the screen data as is, the data with increased frequency resolution will be saved. If you set the "Enhance function: OFF," the frequency range will be in increments of 1/800, so please save as a TXT file with the "Enhance function: OFF."
Note:
When saving as a "*.dat" file, the data is saved in increments of 1/800 of the frequency range.
