5.3.1.2 Displaying FFT Spectrum
Push the MATH MENU button to display the Math menu. Use the options to select the Source
channel, the Window algorithm and the FFT Zoom factor. Only one FFT spectrum can be
displayed at a time.

5.3.1.3 Selecting FFT Window
Using windows can eliminate the spectral leakage in the FFT spectrum. The FFT algorithm
assumes that the YT waveform repeats all the time. When the number of cycles is integral (1, 2,
3 ...), the YT waveform starts and ends at the same amplitude and there are no discontinuities in
the signal shape.
If the number of cycles is nonintegral, the YT waveform starts and ends at different amplitudes and
transitions between the start and end points will cause discontinuities in the signal that introduces
