Detecting harmonics
1. Press [PRESET] key.
The R&S Spectrum Rider is reset to its default state.
After the preset, the R&S Spectrum Rider displays the frequency spectrum
over its full frequency span.
At 100 MHz, the generator signal is displayed as a vertical line. In addition,
you can see the harmonics as smaller vertical lines at frequencies that are
multiples of 100 MHz. To measure the second harmonic ratio, decrease the
span.
2. Press [FREQ] key.
3. Select the "Start" softkey at the "Measurement footer bar".
The R&S Spectrum Rider opens an entry box to enter the start frequency.
4. Enter a start frequency of 50 MHz.
5. Confirm the entry with one of the unit keys.
6. Select the "Stop" softkey at the "Measurement footer bar".
The R&S Spectrum Rider opens an entry box to enter the stop frequency.
7. Enter a stop frequency of 250 MHz.
8. Confirm the entry with one of the unit keys.
The R&S Spectrum Rider displays the frequency spectrum in the range from
50 MHz to 250 MHz. This frequency range visualizes the signal itself at 100
MHz and the second harmonic at 200 MHz.
