Channel Bar
Using the R&S
FSW you can handle several different measurement tasks (channels)
at the same time (although they can only be performed asynchronously). For each
channel, a separate tab is displayed on the screen. In order to switch from one channel
display to another, simply select the corresponding tab.
Alternatively, if many tabs are displayed, select the tab selection list icon at the right
end of the channel bar and select the channel you want to switch to from the list.
MultiView tab
An additional tab labelled "MultiView" provides an overview of all active channels at a
glance. In the "MultiView" tab, each individual window contains its own channel bar
with an additional button. Tap this button to switch to the corresponding channel dis-
play quickly.
Icons in the channel bar
The icon on the tab label indicates that the displayed trace no longer matches the
current instrument settings. This may be the case, for example, if a trace is frozen and
the instrument settings are changed. As soon as a new measurement is performed, the
icon disappears.
The icon indicates that an error or warning is available for that measurement chan-
nel. This is particularly useful if the MultiView tab is displayed.
