Auto Couple
Coupled functions are functions that are linked to or dependent on other functions.
Pressing Auto Couple displays some of the most important coupled N8201A functions.
An example of a coupled function is Res BW (resolution bandwidth). When Res BW is set
to auto, the Res BW is automatically set based on the span setting.
Coupled functions are affected depending on how they are coupled. For example, Video BW
is coupled to Res BW, so changing Res BW affects Video BW, but changing Video BW does
not affect Res BW. Changing Video BW puts it in manual (instead of auto-coupled). When
Video BW is set to Man it is unaffected by Res BW changes.
When a function is in the Man state, a # will appear next to its annotation on the display. If
one or more functions are manually set so that the amplitude or frequency measurement
becomes uncalibrated, “Meas Uncal” appears on the top right side of the graticule.
