10 OUTPUT 723;"LIMILINE 20;"
The LIMILINE command initiates the process that loads new limit lines into the limit-line table. When creating a limit line, following LIMILINE with a number clears the limit-line table, prepares it for data entry, and species the number of segments in the limit line. Thus, the expression LIMILINE 20 clears the limit-line table and allocates memory space for a 20-segment limit line.
A limit line is a test limit consisting of a series of line segments positioned according to wavelength and amplitude in the spectrum-analyzer measurement range. Two limit lines can be dened, one for the upper limit, another for the lower limit. Once dened, trace data can be compared to the limit lines as the spectrum analyzer sweeps. When the trace data exceeds the upper or lower limits, the spectrum analyzer beeps or sends test results to the computer. Limit lines can be stored in a table or in a trace. Use these commands in the order given to build a limit-line for storing in the limit-line table.
