Static Pseudowire mode is only supported for some devices and capture controls are dependent on the selected device.
NOTE: Static Pseudowire capture mode requires ServAssure Collection Platform 2.11 or higher.
NOTE: Some controls may not be configurable depending on the vendor support and some fields retain their values from previous captures.
For information on devices supporting this mode, refer to Upstream Spectrum capture summary.

Capture controls for Static Pseudowire mode can include:

Start and end frequencies

Start Frequency
Starting frequency of the capture.
End Frequency
Ending frequency of the capture.
Samples
This is the number of samples in the capture. Starting frequency and ending frequency, along with the number of samples determine the resolution per point.
NOTE:

Captures may have a variable resolution based on the sample count chosen (determined by the vendor device). A note can be shown below the Capture controls that identifies the resolution, for example: Your settings result in a resolution of 100 kHz per point

Domain
The value for Domain is set to Frequency, indicating that amplitude is measured versus frequency (MHz).
Capture Interval
The number of seconds between samples. Value range is 0.05 – 1 second (50ms to 1000ms, inclusive).
NOTE:Capture Interval is not applicable if IdleFFT is selected.
Service Identifier
The Service Identifier menu lets you select either IdleFFT or Any options for the capture.
Options are:
IdleFFT
Idle Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) means that spectrum analysis is captured when no modem should be transmitting and the channel is idle.
Any
Spectrum analysis that is captured in Freerun mode and can occur at any time without waiting for the appropriate IUC interval.
