Real Format

The REAL softkey displays only the real (resistive) portion of the measured data on a Cartesian
format (see Figure 6-19). This is similar to the linear magnitude format, but can show both
positive and negative values. It is primarily used for analyzing responses in the time domain,
and also to display an auxiliary input voltage signal for service purposes.
Imaginary Format
The IWXBFBRY softkey displays only the imaginary (reactive) portion of the measured data
on a Cartesian format. This format is similar to the real format except that reactance data is
displayed on the trace instead of impedance data.
