C/N, C/No

Opens a submenu to configure the carrier/noise ratio measurement. Measurements
without (C/N) and measurements with reference to the bandwidth (C/No) are possible.

Carrier-to-noise measurements are not available in zero span mode.

Note: 

Carrier-to-noise measurements are also available in the I/Q Analyzer, but only

for 

Spectrum

 displays (see 

"Display Config"

 

on page 431).

For general information on performing carrier-to-noise ratio measurements see 

Chap-

ter 6.1.1.3, "Measuring the Carrier-to-Noise Ratio"

on page 225.

C/N ← C/N, C/No

Switches the measurement of the carrier/noise ratio on or off. If no marker is active,
marker 1 is activated.

The measurement is performed on the trace that marker 1 is assigned to. To shift
marker 1 and measure another trace, use the 

Marker to Trace

 softkey in the "Marker

To" menu.

C/No ← C/N, C/No

Switches the measurement of the carrier/noise ratio with reference to a 1 Hz bandwidth
on or off. If no marker is active, marker 1 is activated.

The measurement is performed on the trace that marker 1 is assigned to. To shift
marker 1 and measure another trace, use the 

Marker to Trace

 softkey in the "Marker

Channel Bandwidth ← C/N, C/No

Opens an edit dialog box to enter the measurement channel bandwidth for each chan-
nel.

The default setting is 14 kHz.
