We have an N9020A analyzer which have been upgraded (to N9020B). We usually run 5 second cycles, and after 2 s a big box appears blocking the spectrum and saying "Waiting for trigger". It was not there before the upgrade. Does anyone know a way to get rid of it? We find it extremely annoying.

Hi ansgar,
There are several reasons why this dialog box may appear. I would be happy to help you solve the issue, but I'll need more information about your triggering setup. The best way to help me help you is to attach a state file to your reply so I can see exactly what your system looks like while you're making your measurements. Alternatively, a few screenshots of your N9020B screen including those detailing your triggering options could help.
To save the state file, attach a flash drive to the instrument, hit the [Save] button on the front panel, and choose to save the state file to your drive. You can then specify to save to your flash drive.
