Measuring Admittance To change the display to an inverse Smith chart graticule and the marker information to read admittance, press G+ jB MKR .

As shown in Figure 2-16, the marker reads admittance data in the form G+jB, where G is conductance and B is susceptance, both measured in units of Siemens (equivalent to mhos: the inverse of ohms). Also shown is the equivalent parallel capacitance or inductance.
