Synchronizing Trace Settings
By coupling the trace settings together, you can align the vertical settings (
,
,
) of all measurement traces to the selected trace
settings.
1. Select the
which vertical settings are to be aligned.
The R&S
ZNH highlights the trace label.
2. Press the [SCALE/AMPT] key.
3. Select the "Couple Traces" softkey.
The R&S
ZNH aligns the vertical settings of all display traces to the selected trace

Selecting the Measurement Format
Different trace formats allow you to express and display the results, depending on what
you want to learn from the data. The R&S
ZNH allows arbitrary combinations of display
. To extract useful information, it is important to select
a display format which is appropriate to the analysis of a particular
