New Comparison Trace from Memory: Lets you
select a new trace from memory to compare to the
reference trace.
Turn Off Trace Overlay: Removes the reference trace
from the OTDR plot.
Reference Trace/Comparison Trace: The traces and
wavelengths currently selected for the trace overlay
function. To select or deselect a wavelength,
highlight a trace name; then press
OTDR PLOT GRID: Turns the OTDR plot grid on and
off.
MARKER DELTA MODE: Sets the mode for the
measurement cursors on the OTDR plot:
•
Δ distance Δ dB: The cursor readout shows the
difference in the power levels (in decibels)
between the cursors.
•
dB per unit distance: The cursor readout shows
the power loss (in decibels) that would occur
over 1 km or 1 kft of cable based on the loss
between the cursors.
