After that, the information window will be available: 

 

Pressing the  

 key will take the analyzer to the 

Settings menu

. Pressing the 

 key will return the analyzer 

to the 

Main menu

Change of settings screens is carried out with 

  

 keys and change of parameters 

with 

  

 keys. 

There are currently 

7 basic

 settings available in the 

Stick 230 analyzer

1.  Turn on/off 

Bluetooth

 (enabled by default). 

If you do not use the Bluetooth connection of the analyzer with the 

smartphone, turn off this function. This will save battery power.

 

2. 

Enable screen inversion

 (disabled by default). 

3.  Analyzer automatic shutdown time (battery saving mode). Available values: never, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 

30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes. Default: 5 minutes. 

4. 

Choosing ITU region.

 The default is 1 region. 

The choice of region affects the boundaries of predefined ranges. 

The width of most ranges in each region is different.

 

5. 

Band search.

 This setting affects the speed worked of the 

Multé

 function. There are two 

meanings: 

Normal

 and 

Deep

In Normal mode, the Multe function is fast, but there is a chance of missing the 

narrow resonance of the antenna or inaccurate determination of resonance frequency. In Deep mode, the 
measurement speed increases, but the possibility of mistake is minimized.

 

6. 

System Z0.

 Choosing a system impedance value. Available values: 

12.5 Ohm, 25 Ohm, 28 Ohm, 37 Ohm, 50 

Ohm, 75 Ohm, 100 Ohm, 150 Ohm, 200 Ohm, 300 Ohm, 450 Ohm, 600 Ohm.

  Default: 50 Ohm. 

This setting is 

needed in cases where, for example, when measuring, a broadband transformer with a transformation ratio of 1: 9 
is used. In this case, the impedance at the transformer output will be 450 Ohms and for the correct readings of the 
analyzer, it is necessary to set the system impedance equal to 450 Ohms.

 

7. 

Factory Reset.

 Reset all analyzer settings to factory defaults. To reset, press and hold the  

  key. 

Settings are saved automatically when they are changed. 

To exit the 

Settings

 menu, press the  

  or  

  keys. 

AntScope2 and AntScope for Android

 

Stick 230 analyzer

 can work with 

AntScope2

 and 

AntScope for Android

AntScope2

 works with personal computers and laptops running operating systems 

Microsoft Windows, macOS, 

Linux Ubuntu.

 

The latest versions of the software for various operating systems can be downloaded 
here:

Important! The Stick 230 analyzer does not work with the first version of AntScope.

 

To work with 

AntScope2

 the analyzer does not require the installation of any drivers. Just connect the analyzer 

to the PC via the USB cable and run the 

AntScope2

 program (the program must be downloaded and installed 

first). The program should automatically recognize the analyzer and prepare for work. 
At the same time, the following information will be displayed in the upper part of the program window:
