niRFSA Configure Resolution Bandwidth

NI RF Vector Signal Analyzers

niRFSA Configure Resolution Bandwidth

Configures the resolution bandwidth of a spectrum acquisition. The resolution bandwidth controls the width of the frequency bins in the power spectrum computed by NI-RFSA. A larger value for resolution bandwidth means the frequency bins are wider, and hence you get fewer bins or spectral lines.

By default, the resolution bandwidth value corresponds to the 3 dB bandwidth of the window type NI-RFSA uses to compute the spectrum. To specify the frequency bin width directly, change the resolution bandwidth type attribute to bin width. Refer to the Resolution Bandwidth Type property for more information.

cio.gif instrument handle identifies your instrument session. instrument handle is obtained from the niRFSA Initialize or the niRFSA Initialize With Options VIs and identifies a particular instrument session.
cdbl.gif resolution bandwidth (Hz) specifies the resolution bandwidth of a spectrum acquisition. The value is expressed in hertz. Configure the type of resolution bandwidth with the Resolution Bandwidth Type property.
ccclst.gif error in (no error) describes error conditions that occur before this VI runs.
cbool.gif status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred before this VI ran or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred before this VI ran. The default is FALSE.
ci32.gif code is the error or warning code. The default is 0. If status is TRUE, code is a negative error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
cstr.gif source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI that produced the error or warning. The default is an empty string.
iio.gif instrument handle out passes a reference to your instrument session to the next VI. instrument handle is obtained from the niRFSA Initialize or the niRFSA Initialize With Options VIs and identifies a particular instrument session.
icclst.gif error out contains error information. If error in indicates that an error occurred before this VI ran, error out contains the same error information. Otherwise, it describes the error status that this VI produces.
ibool.gif status is TRUE (X) if an error occurred or FALSE (checkmark) to indicate a warning or that no error occurred.
ii32.gif code the error or warning code. If status is TRUE, code is a non-zero error code. If status is FALSE, code is 0 or a warning code.
istr.gif source describes the origin of the error or warning and is, in most cases, the name of the VI that produced the error or warning.
