Additional Notes on Measurement Spans

Bottom reference is 10 Hz, max span is 20 kHz.

Top span 23000 Hz = 460 lines.

To select a sample frequency for time domain data, first divide the desired sample frequency by 2.56 to convert it to a measurement span. Then locate the closest measurement span on this table and choose the corresponding sample frequency at top of the table.

The HP E1432A can use measurement spans that match those of the

HP E1431A, although not for all of the HP E1431A’s range. Maximum span for the HP E1431A is 25.6 kHz. The maximum HP E1431A-compatible span for the HP E1432A 12.8 kHz.

For an HP E1432A which has option 1D4, the Arbitrary Source, the sample rate for the source is automatically set to be the same as the sample rate selected for the inputs. When the source is active the sample rate cannot be 40.000 kHz.
