4.3. Graph modes
A key feature of RigExpert AA-200/AA-500 Antenna Analyzers is ability to display
various parameters of a load graphically. Graphs are especially useful to view the
behavior of these parameters over the specified frequency band.
4.3.1. SWR graph
In the
SWR graph
mode (press the
4
key in the
Main menu
), values of the Standing
Wave Ratio are plotted over the specified range:
You may set center frequency (the
2
key) or scanning range (the
3
key). By using
arrow keys, these parameters may be increased or decreased.
Press the
ok
key to refresh the graph.
The
0
key opens a list of radio amateur bands to set the required center frequency and
scanning range quickly. Also, you may use this function to see the whole frequency
range supported by the analyzer.
Press the
1
key to access the list of additional commands for this mode.
4.3.2. R,X graph
In the
R,X graph
mode (press the
5
key in the
Main menu
), values or R (active part of
the impedance) and X (reactive part) are plotted as solid and dotted lines, respectively.
