The marker coordinates are also shown in numerical form in the marker list above the
diagram area. The marker list opens when you activate the first marker.
Figure 14-19: Marker information in the diagram area and the marker list above the diagram
The marker list contains the following information.
●
Marker number and type.
"M" for normal markers, "D" for delta marker, including the marker number ("M1" to
"M6" and "D2" to "D6").
The currently selected marker is framed by a colored line.
●
Horizontal position of the marker.
The horizontal position is usually a frequency value.
show the time on the x-axis. Normal markers indicate absolute values, delta marker
the (relative) distance to the first marker (reference marker).
In
, for example, the frequency for the first marker ("M1") is an abso-
lute value, while the frequency of the second marker, a delta marker, is displayed
as an offset to the first marker. Because the second marker is located to the left of
the first marker, it is a negative value.
●
Vertical position of the marker.
The vertical position is usually the measured level. Normal markers show the mea-
sured level as an absolute level in dBm. Delta markers indicate the level relative to
the first marker.
In
, for example, the level measured at delta marker 2 ("D2") is a few
dB less than the level measured for marker 1 ("M1").
