This section describes manual operation of the analyzer, including trace settings, mark-
ers and diagrams. For a description of the different quantities measured by the instru-

Display elements of a diagram
The central part of the screen is occupied by one or more diagrams.
A diagram is simply a rectangular portion of the screen used to display traces. Dia-
grams are independent of trace and channel settings. A diagram can contain a practi-
cally unlimited number of traces which can be assigned to different channels.
Most diagram settings are arranged in the "Display" softtool (key System – [Display]).
To assign traces and channels to diagrams, use the control elements on the "Traces" >
"Traces" and "Channel Config" > "Channels" softtool tabs (keys Trace – [Trace
Config]
and Channel – [Channel
Config]).
Diagrams can contain:
●
A title (optional)
●
The diagram number (or label)
●
Measurement results, in particular traces and marker values (optional)
●
An indication of the basic channel and trace settings
●
Context menus providing settings which are related to a particular display element
●
Error messages
The examples in this section have been taken from Cartesian diagrams. All other dia-
gram types provide the same display elements.
