Chapter Overview
This chapter provides information for setup and configuration for the main instrument display. Selections provide control over the trace format with over 17 different major displays. Each display type can be further modified with parameters applicable to that format. The control also provides control for trace memory and trace math modifications. The trace limit functions allow maximum/minimum parameters to be set for each trace and provide visual and/or programmatic indications of pass/fail. Four major time domain settings are available for no time domain, frequency with time gate, time low pass, and time band pass. Gain compression configurations are available for CW Swept Frequency and Power Swept Frequency. Other menus and dialogs are available for range setup, DC term, extrapolation, gate setup, and window shape functions.
