Using the Optical Spectrum Analyzer
The Markers Menus
Next Peak Right
Places the marker on the next peak located at a longer wavelength than the current marker wavelength position. This next peak must meet the peak excursion and threshold criteria. If the specified marker is OFF, it will be turned ON, placed at the center wavelength, and the search to the right will begin from that point.
Active Marker....
Turns a particular marker ON or OFF. Turning a marker OFF will turn off any marker function that was on for that particular marker. When the marker is turned ON again, all the marker functions for that marker will be off.
Note
For addition information on setting the peak and pit excursion criteria, see “Peak Excursion ” and “Pit Excursion” on page
To perform a pit search
1Press the
2Select an active marker.
3Press the More Marker Functions.... softkey.
4Press the Marker Search Menu.... softkey.
5Press the Search Mode.... softkey and toggle to select Pit search mode.
6Press the Pit Search softkey. Select from the following options:
Next Pit Up
Places the marker on the next lowest pit from the current marker amplitude. This next highest pit must meet the peak excursion and threshold criteria. If the specified marker is OFF, it will be turned ON, placed at the center wave- length, and the search for the next minimum will begin from that point.
Next Pit Left
Places the marker on the next pit located at a shorter wavelength than the current marker wavelength position. This next pit must meet the pit excursion and threshold criteria. If the specified marker is OFF, it will be turned ON, placed at the center wavelength, and the search to the left will begin from that point.
