DISP:WIND2:STAT ON
Create diagram area no. 2 (window suffix 2).
DISP:WIND2:TRAC9:FEED 'CH4TR1'
Display the generated trace (identified by its name
Ch4Tr1)
in diagram area no. 2 (window suffix 2),
assigning the trace number 9 (trace suffix 9) to it.
Active Traces in Remote Control
In manual control there is always exactly one active trace, irrespective of the number of channels and
traces defined. The
active channel
contains the active trace; see section
Trace Settings
in Chapter 3.
In remote control, each channel contains an active trace (unless the channel contains no trace at all), so
the notion of
active channel
is meaningless. This principle actually simplifies the remote control command
syntax, because it allows the active trace in a particular channel to be referenced by means of the channel
suffix. No additional trace identifier is needed; there is no need either to distinguish channel and trace
settings using mnemonics or suffixes.
The active traces are handled as follows:
After a preset (
*RST
), the analyzer displays a single diagram area with the default trace no. 1
named
TRC1.
The trace is active in manual and in remote control.
In manual control, a new, added trace automatically becomes the active trace. To select another
trace as the active trace, click inside the trace list.
In remote control, a new trace added via
CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SDEFine
'<trace_name>', '<parameter>'
also becomes the active trace. To select another trace as
the active trace, use (
CALCulate<Ch>:PARameter:SELect '<trace_name>'
).
The active traces for manual and remote control may be different.
