4 FFT Program

4.1 Run FFT program

Move the focus to highlight the FFT software program, and then press [

OK]

to

run this program. Or double tap the program icon with your finger to run this
program.

4.2 Navigating the displays

The main display (below) shows the measured data in up to two windows, i.e.,
Pane A and Pane B respectively. You may select one of these data windows
as “active” while the other window is “inactive”. The active window has a deep
blue title bar, while the “inactive” window has a light blue title bar.

This window is “active,” because the title bar is in deep blue color.
