b. If the signal being measured is locked to the same frequency reference as the analyzer, the
specified count accuracy is ±0.100 Hz under the test conditions of footnote a. This error is a
noisiness of the result. It will increase with noisy sources, wider RBWs, lower S/N ratios, and
source frequencies >1 GHz.

a. Horizontal resolution is due to the marker reading out one of the trace points. The points are
spaced by span/(Npts 1), where Npts is the number of sweep points. For example, with the
factory preset value of 1001 sweep points, the horizontal resolution is span/1000. However,
there is an exception: When both the detector mode is “normal” and the span > 0.25 × (Npts
1) × RBW, peaks can occur only in even-numbered points, so the effective horizontal resolu-
tion becomes doubled, or span/500 for the factory preset case. When the RBW is auto coupled
and there are 1001 sweep points, that exception occurs only for spans > 750 MHz.
