How to Operate Your Instrument
Vector Menu
The Vector menu enables you to specify a number of display parameters.
Elements of the menu for SDI input signals:
IQ Axis On
. When checked, adds graticule lines in Component Vector mode for the I axis and the Q axis.
Compass Rose On
. When checked, adds the compass rose graticule for component signals in the Vector mode display.
Component/Composite.
Toggles the vector scaling and graticules between the Component and Composite signal
representations.
Bar Target Setting.
The bar target setting, either 75% or 100%.
Elements of the Vector menu for Composite input signals:
Normal / SCH Phase.
Selecting SCH Phase adds one or more radial traces to the vector display that correspond to
the phase of a subcarrier that is synchronous with the horizontal sync pulse.
Phase: Normal / Phase: +V
Present only on Vector displays with PAL input format. The Phase Normal mode shows
both phases of the vector that results from the phase alternating on lines (PAL). The Phase + mode inverts the phase on
every other line to "undo" the PAL sequence and thus shows all lines in one phase orientation.
Bar Target Setting.
The bar target setting, either 75% or 100%.
Picture Display
Pressing the PICTURE button calls up the Picture display, which lets you see the picture generated by the video signal. You
can choose to display the picture with or without a frame.
Display Characteristics:
In full-screen mode (shown), there is no
cropping.
In Active-picture mode, pictures are
decimated horizontally or vertically to
achieve the correct aspect ratio. This
decimation may cause some artifacts.
This behavior may be evident on a
sweep or convergence signal.
Also see the online help for the
Active Picture / Full Frame for related
information.
