C Function Prototype

ViStatus IviSpecAn_ConfigureFrequencyStartStop (ViSession vi, ViReal64 startFrequency, ViReal64 stopFrequency);

Purpose

This function configures the frequency range defining its start frequency and its stop frequency. If the start frequency is equal to the stop frequency, then the spectrum analyzer operates in the time-domain mode. Otherwise, the spectrum analyzer operates in frequency-domain mode.

Notes:

(1) In auto-coupled mode, resolution bandwidth (RBW), video bandwidth (VBW), and sweep time may be affected by this function.
