About Marker Functions
The marker can be used in the following ways:
Reading a measured value as numerical data (as an absolute value
•
or a relative value from the reference point)
Moving the marker to a specific point on the trace (marker search)
•
Analyzing trace data to determine a specific parameter
•
Using the value of the marker to change the stimulus (sweep range)
•
and scale (value of the reference line)
For the procedure used to change the sweep range and scale by using the
marker, refer to Setting the Sweep Range Using the Marker and Setting the
value of a reference line using the marker.
The E5071C is capable of displaying up to 10 markers including the
reference marker on each trace. Each marker has a stimulus value (the
value on the X-axis in rectangular display format) and a response value (the
value on the Y-axis in rectangular display format). The Smith chart and polar
formats each have two marker response values (log amplitude and phase).
Reading Marker Values on Trace
You can read the value of a marker displayed on the trace.
In rectangular display format, the marker response value is always in the
same data format as that of the Y-axis. On the contrary, one format for the
marker response values (two values: main and auxiliary) can be selected
from among several types. The selection is performed in the data format.
