Bob,
In case you need to enter the frequency manually, select stimulus as stated, then after you select what you want (start, stop, centre, etc) and the Freq appears across the bottom of the touchscreen, press the open white bar on the right side of the numbers to bring up the onscreen keyboard.
Play with to to get familiar. You can't break anything.
One thing I found is you can actually go down as far as 10khz but the display will be all over the place.
Regards
Larry

The screen is touch sensitive. Tap it to bring up the home display menu.
Select ¡°stimulus¡±. That¡¯s where you enter the frequencies and other
information. You can also push down on the jog wheel to activate the menu and
then scroll and select.
Go to ¡°files¡± on the groups.io website and download the PDF titled ¡°Menu
Map¡±. It will show you how to navigate the menu structure.
Have fun,
Larry

Certainly reasonable questions. I would add entering frequencies and other
entries. I am new to the NanoVNA but not network analysis.

Hi Bob, welcome to the group.
There are a number of references in the FILES and WIKI sections.
You can also do a search of key words from the many posts that have good
info.
Note - there are several versions of the NanoVNA, the best being one of the
black units.
Although this unit will never compare to a lab quality VNA, it does perform
remarkably well for its simple design.
Read up on the lengthy discussions regarding calibration to get the best
results from your new 'toy'.
I have posted a number of references here:

After discovering the Nanovna I decided to order one. A short introductory
discussion formed on AMFONE.NET, which mentioned this group, so I decided
to join. I¡¯ve been reading through the posts and already learned a lot.
It
sounds like most of you are part of an advanced user group. I¡¯m
wondering
if anyone can suggest any entry-level on-line resources which would
summarize what should / must be done when you first receive the Nanovna?
I¡¯m wondering about matters such as does the firmware need to be updated
and from where it would be obtained, is calibrating required each time you
use it, and the matter about extra shielding be added to some units? I
apologize for asking these entry level questions in what appears to be a
very advanced user group, but I¡¯ve always believed that the only dumb
questions are those we don¡¯t ask.
