Selecting the Target Trace Type (Data or Memory)
When changing the scale and display settings through the Scale Reference menu with both
the data and memory traces displayed, you can specify whether to apply the new settings to
the data or memory trace.
Step 1. Activate the trace you want to manually scale.
Step 2. Press the
[Scale Ref]
key to display the Scale Reference menu.
Step 3. Press the
more 1/2
key to move to the second page of the Scale Reference menu if the
vertical axis of the graph is not logarithmic or the measurement parameter is not
COMPLEX Z-Y.
Step 4. Press the
SCALE FOR [ ]
key to select the target trace type (either data or memory).
NOTE The Agilent 4294A provides a feature called “coupled scaling mode” that synchronizes the
scale settings of the data and memory traces. When coupled scaling mode is on, changes
made to the scale of the target trace type are also applied to the non-target trace type. For
more information on coupled scaling mode, refer to “Enabling or Disabling Coupled
Scaling Mode” on page 178.
When either the data or memory trace is displayed, that trace type is automatically selected
as the target trace type and you cannot change the target to the other trace type.
