Can anyone help me with Saturation Transfer NMR

Hi I am working on a Varian 500MHz NMR. I am attempting to use the pulse sequence satxfer1D to measure the rate constant of an exchanging system. I am not using solvent suppression and I am having trouble understanding the physics behind the "mixing time" after the 90 pulse. I also do not know how many iterations the selective pulse should go through because it seems that if I turn the mixing time off and just use a selective pulse, and then a pw90, I will still obtain the same spectrum no matter how many iterations the selective pulse train goes through. Does anyone have any thoughts/ideas?
