Selecting Trace (Active Trace) - Agilent Technologies 4294A Operating Manual

Selecting Trace (Active Trace)

The Agilent 4294A can display the measurement results of one sweep measurement in two
traces (waveforms) on the screen. These traces are called trace A and trace B. Various
conditions or analyses can be applied to these traces independently, while others can be
applied to them in common, such as the sweep range.
Step 1. Press one of the following keys to select a trace for setting conditions or for analysis.
Active trace
Trace A
Trace B
The settings using the following keys (key operations) can be specified for trace A and
trace B independently. Before making settings with these keys (key operations), be sure to
check and select the active trace.
• [Format]
[Display] - DEF TRACE [] (except for DATA ® MEMORY)
•
• [Display] - OFFSET
• [Display] - more 1/2 - TITLE
• [Scale Ref]
• Keys in the MARKER block
The settings using keys other than those above can be commonly applied to trace A and
trace B. Therefore, you do not have to select the active trace or check its state before
making those settings. However, there are some exceptions. Refer to the operational
procedure of each function for details.
