Chapter 2 Functions and Operations

 

AMPLITUDE

Displays the amplitude or scale menu depending on the measurement mode.

 

Amplitude

Provides for changing the display scale. Selected values may be changed using

 

Menu

the Up/Down arrow key or keypad.

 

 

Choosing AMPLITUDE in FREQ or DTF measurement modes causes the soft

 

 

keys, below, to be displayed and the corresponding values to be shown in the

 

 

message area.

 

 

￿ TOP — Opens the top parameter for data entry and provides for setting the

 

 

top scale value. Press ENTER when data entry is complete.

 

 

￿ BOTTOM — Opens the bottom parameter for data entry and provides for set-

 

 

ting the bottom scale value. Press ENTER when data entry is complete.

 

SWEEP

Displays the Sweep function soft key menu for the current operating mode.

 

 

Sweep Menu

Provides for changing the display resolution, single or continuous sweep, and

 

 

access to the Trace Math functions.

 

 

Choosing SWEEP in FREQ or DTF measurement modes causes the soft keys

 

 

 

 

below to be displayed.

 

 

￿ RESOLUTION — Opens the display to change the resolution. Choose 130,

 

 

259, or 517 data points. (In DTF mode, resolution can be adjusted through

 

 

the DTF-AID table.)

 

 

￿ SINGLE SWEEP — Toggles the sweep between single sweep and continu-

 

 

ous sweep. In single sweep mode, each sweep must be activated by the

 

 

RUN/HOLD button.

 

 

￿ TRACE MATH — Opens up the Trace Math functions (trace-memory or

 

 

trace+memory) for comparison of the real time trace in the display with any

 

 

of the traces from memory. (Not available in DTF mode.)

 

 

￿ TRACE OVERLAY — Opens up the Trace Overlay functions menu to allow

 

 

the current trace to be displayed at the same time as a trace in memory.

 

 

Choose ON or OFF and SELECT TRACE to select the trace from memory to
