Before calculating the FFT, the oscilloscope weights the signal to be analyzed by a
window that acts as a bandpass filter. The choice of type of window is essential to
distinguish the different spikes of a signal and make accurate measurements.

Frequency representation of
the signal calculated by FFT
The total duration of the study interval results in a convolution in the frequency
domain of the signal with a function sinx/x.
This convolution modifies the graphic representation of the FFT because of the
characteristic lateral lobes of the sinx/x function (unless the study interval contains
an integral number of periods).
Five weighting windows are proposed: the menus appear directly upon selection of
the FFT menu.
Effects of undersampling on the frequency representation:
If the sampling frequency is too low (less than the twice the cutoff frequency of the
signal to be measured), the high-frequency components are undersampled and are
aliased (frequency-shifted) in the graphic representation of the FFT.
The "Autoset" function is active. It serves to avoid the above phenomenon and adapt
the horizontal scale: the representation is easier to read.
The "Zoom" function is active. The zoom affects the graphic representation of the
FFT but does not change the conditions of acquisition (TB + depth).
