The Measurement Display Icon
The measurement display icon, located in the lower right corner of the
analyzer's display, indicates the signal path direction of the current
measurement. The look of this icon will vary, depending on the type of
measurement, calibration, and sweep time that have been selected. The
following table contains the icons, along with an explanation of each. (If
both measurement channels are active, you may see variations of these
icons.)
