Averaging

NOTE

Automatic averaging also applies an algo- rithm to enhance set- tling at low power levels (e.g.,signal sources).

SETUP	Sets up the Start and Stop frequencies and voltages when Source
[CVSTF	is set to V/GHz. This tells the ML2430A how to determine the fre-
CVSPF	quency of the swept signal based on the applied rear panel voltage.

Sensor data averaging. The available soft keys depend upon the operating mode selected.

In Readout and Power vs. Time modes, the following soft keys appear:

	AUTOMATIC averaging uses a MOVING type of average and in-
	creases the amount of averaging as the noise level increases. The
	display updates at approximately 100 ms intervals, however the
	data is available at the full rate. The display is slowed down to pre-
	vent jitter and allow the user to follow the update.
	MOVING average allows the user to manually select the amount of
	averaging regardless of the signal level. The display is continually
	updated while averaging.
	When selected, the following soft key becomes available:
NUMBER	Sweep averaging number (1 to 512).
