Troublesho oting Issues with A dobe Flash Pla yer 10.1o r Later
Removing focus fromt hebrowser window displaying the spectrum analysis dashboard may cause Adobe Flash 10.1
or laterto st opupdating the spectrum charts in orderto reduce CPU usage. When you restorefocus to the spectrum
analysis dashboard,you may see the spectrum charts update rapidly as the display catches up. Recorded data may be
inaccurate if you navigate away from the spectrum window during a recording. Flash10 .0 does not have this issue.
