Connection example:
Gain:
To ensure optimum detection of different signals, match the gain (y-axis) with the reduction
of the frequency range shown (x-axis). The ARGUS always begins with the lowest gain (-
26 dB in the frequency range up to 3 MHz). Measuring range: -130 to +10 dBm/Hz.
Gain-Y: Gain settings:
-26 dB, - 20 dB, 0 dB, 20 dB
The ARGUS displays all measuring results as dBm/Hz values. These values are only comparable with
others when the resolution of the measured frequency band is taken into account, as here the total
energy of the frequency band is determined „per Hz“. The bandwidth ARGUS is measuring is indicted
in the display as
Δ
f .
Frequency range:
A frequency range of from 20 kHz to 30 MHz is available for measurement; the resolution
varies depending on the selected range.
The bandwidth Δf at the top right in the display shows which frequency range is being
shown in the display.
Frequency-X: Setting the displayed frequency range. Every press of the cursor key
halves, respectively doubles the displayed range.
