M-FUNCTION
knob to highlight the trace you wish to load.
4. Press the
Select

The stored trace now appears on the screen. It can be selected and manipulated the same as
any scanned trace. See Figure 3.23 in which the loaded trace (red, top) has been translated
slightly upward using the
VERTICAL POSITION
knob in order to improve visualization. Some
stored traces, such as FFT traces, require some re-calculation to fully load. This calculation is
done automatically, but it may take several seconds.
