Math
Math creates a new trace that displays the result of applying a mathematical function (e.g., Sum, Product, FFT) to one or more source traces. One
important distinction between math functions and measurement parameters is that the result of math is always another waveform, whereas the result of
measurement is a number. The math trace always opens in a separate grid from the source and can be viewed along side it. Operations can be chained
by using one math function as a source for the other, by creating Dual functions or by creating complex processing webs with Advanced Web Edit.
Note:
Math calculations are constrained to the center 500 Mpts on >500 Mpts acquisitions.
