Using markers
In addition to the standard marker functionality, the smith chart also features several
marker output formats.
Marker output format
Descriptions
"dB Mag Phase"
Shows the magnitude (in dB) and the phase at the current marker posi-
tion.
"Lin Mag Phase (Rho)"
Shows the converted magnitude (in %) and the phase (in rho) at the cur-
rent marker position.
"Real + Imag (Rho)"
Shows the real and imaginary components at the current marker posi-
tion.
"R + jX"
Shows the real and imaginary components of the impedance at the
marker position. The imaginary component is converted to inductance or
capacitance. Marker frequency and sign are taken into account.
"G + jB"
Shows the real and imaginary components of the admittance at the
marker position. The imaginary component is converted to inductance or
capacitance. Marker frequency and sign are taken into account.
"(R + jX) / Z0"
Shows the real and imaginary components of the standardized impe-
dance.
"(G + jB) / Y0"
Shows the real and imaginary components of the standardized admit-
tance.
► Press the [MARKER] key.
The R&S Cable Rider ZPH activates a marker and opens the marker softkey menu.
Like usual traces, you can move the marker around with the rotary knob or enter a
specific marker position.
