2.4.1.2 Normal
Displays the peak-detected level in the interval (bucket) being displayed when the signal is
CW-like. If the signal is noise-like (within a bucket the signal both rose and fell), the even
bucket shows the peak (maximum) within a two-bucket interval, and the odd bucket shows
the negative peak (minimum). Gain is increased to compensate for the effects of faster
sweep rates, to keep the displayed value of CW signals accurate.
When is selected, Norm appears on the left side of the display.

2.4.1.3 Average
For each interval (bucket) in the trace, Average detection displays the average of all
samples within the interval using one of the following averaging methods:
log (also known as video)
•
power (also known as RMS)
•
voltage envelope
•
To explicitly set the averaging method, use the
combination of the average detector and the power method is equivalent to what is
sometimes referred to as "RMS detection." When the method (
