MINH
Example
Description
Compare amplitude of current trace data to previous sweep, then retain lesser values.
30 OUTPUT 723;"MINH TRA;"
The MINH command (like the minimum hold function) and compares the current amplitude value of each point on a trace as it sweeps to each point value detected during the previous sweep, then retains the minimum values. The trace is continuously swept, updated, and displayed.
The optical spectrum analyzer system controls the detection mode. When MINH is activated, the current instrument detection mode (whether sample or peak) is displayed with the results. The minimum trace value is displayed with an S when sample detection mode is active, or a P when peak detection mode is active. This line of text appears in the bottom line at the center of the display.
