    Hello,

    I apologize for the last post. I didn’t mean to post that incomplete.

    I did try using a Nuttall window as you suggested and it did not make a difference unfortunately.

    The PC I am using is Dell OptiPlex 9020.
    Processor Core: i5
    RAM: 16GB
    CPU Freq: 3.30GHZx4
    Available Memory: 257GB

    I am able to reproduce it on Spike. The thing I don’t understand is that how on Spike, the settings I require are working fine without any lagging, but not with the API? I am consistently getting ~6sec sweeps on Spike as well.

    I have noticed that immediately after replugging it, it is working correctly (6 sec sweeps) for about 1-3 times, and then that is when it is getting stuck.

    Also, I know in the API the user is responsible for passing in the sweep time. The manual says it is recommended to use between 10ms-100ms, however would it be better to for my application to use 6 seconds?

    What CPU specs would be required to have a rbw of 1Hz?
