Vector Network Analyzer Measurement Guide : Field Measurements : Graph Type Selector List Box
 
Graph Type Selector List Box
The Graph Type Selector list box is opened by pressing the Measurement Type soft key in the Measure menu.
Field Measurements View versus VNA Measurements View
Three measurement display types are available in Field Measurements view: Single, Dual, and Overlay. Press the Display Type soft key (submenu key).
In the Overlay display type, only two graph types are available, and they are Insertion Loss for Trace 1 (TR1) and Return Loss for Trace 2 (TR2).
Figure: Display Type Single – Insertion Loss provides an example of Insertion Loss in Display Type Single.
Figure: Display Type Dual – VSWR and Return Loss provides an example of VSWR and Return Loss in Display Type Dual.
Figure: Display Type Overlay – Insertion Loss and Return Loss provides an example of Insertion Loss and Return Loss measurements in Display Type Overlay.
Field Measurements View
The following graph types are available in Field Measurements view:
When Display Type is set to Overlay, the graph types are always Insertion Loss for Trace 1 and Return Loss for Trace 2.
When Display Type is set to Single or Dual, the following graph types are available:
VSWR
Return Loss
Cable Loss
Insertion Loss
1‑Port Phase
2‑Port Phase
1‑Port Smith
DTF Return Loss
