The DET command selects the type of analyzer detection (positive-peak, negative peak, sample, normal, and so on).

POS	enables positive-peak detection, which displays the maximum video signal detected
	over a number of instantaneous samples for a particular frequency.
SMP	enables sample detection, which uses the instantaneous video signal value. Video
	averaging and noise-level markers, when activated, activate sample detection
	automatically.
NEG	enables negative peak detection.
NRM	enables the ‘rosenfell’ detection algorithm that selectively chooses between positive
	and negative values.

NOTE	The functions of the DET command are identical to the KSa command (page 184),
	the KSb command (page 186), the KSd command (page 190), and the KSe
	command (page 192).
