Data storage
Files stored: auto tests, tilt, channel plans, scan and forward
sweep. Also reverse sweep and reverse amp alignment on
SDA-5000 with option 1 and/or 2. Spectrum mode (regular
with max hold and CSO/CTB). Allocated on demand.The stor-
age capability is simultaneous – more of one file type can be
“traded”for less of another. All files stored as database, not as
screen picture. (Example: typical mix of files for 78-channel
plan: 8 channel plans, 16 sweep references, 80 sweep traces,
40 scan files, 20 spectrum displays and 20 auto tests).
