About Marker Functions
The marker can be used in the following ways:
•
•
•
•
For the procedure to change the frequency range and scale by using the marker, refer to
"Setting the Frequency Range Using the Marker" on page 60 and "Setting the Value of a
Reference Line Using the Marker" on page 72.
The E5070A/E5071A is capable of displaying up to 10 markers 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).
NOTE
A partial search cannot be performed by manual operation.
Reading Values on the Trace
Follow the steps below to read the value of a marker displayed on the trace.
Reading a Value on the Trace
Step 1. Press
Step 2. Press
Step 3. Press
NOTE
At this point in time, marker 1 is turned on and becomes active (you can operate the
marker). When using marker 1, you can omit Step 4.
Step 4. Select a marker and turn it on. The softkey used to turn on a marker is used to activate that
marker.
