Test Setup
 Different functions can be measured or saved: Time, Octave, Spectrum,

Crosspower, Autopower, Frequency Response Funtions, Principal Component
Analysis,…
 For each function there are specific options
 Function can be displayed during Check

Test Setup (2)
 Acquisition parameters:
 Bandwith = fmax = fS/2
 Spectral Lines = N/2 = Blocksize/2
 Resolution = ∆f = fS/N
 Acquisition Control:
 Free Run – Trigger – Time – Source
 Averaging  Number of averages
 Conditioning: Reference + Response Window
 Do a check to preview the functions to be

measured

Test Setup
Acquisition Control
Acquisition is controlled by:

 Start condition
 Defines when the complete measurement starts
 No averages acquired before start condition has been met
 Does not start any data acquisition
 Acquisition mode
 Defines when a single average is acquired
 Free run, trigger, time, source
Avg 1 Avg 2 Avg 3 Avg 4
Start condition Averages are acquired based

fulfilled on acquisition mode settings
