Graph Settings and Measurement

Cursor Measurement

When hovering the mouse over any of the curves or plots on the graph, the horizontal and vertical values of the X and Y positions pointed to will be displayed. It is important to note that while the X value will follow the mouse pointer, the Y value will show the value of the closest trace.

Add Marker

You can mark the curves for value inspection. Press CTRL + click, to create a marker. This marker will display the values of the traces as tooltips on top of the charts. It will show the values of all the traces.

A maximum of 5 markers can be placed on the chart.

To remove a marker, select the marker by clicking on top of it. The line of the marker will become wider, indicating it has been selected.

Add Delta Marker

Delta marker helpful in creating differential values for selected curves.

To add delta markers, press ALT + click on chart, and enable measurements from traces where delta values are desired.

The selected traces will display the following information:

  • The value at the first marker.
  • The value at the second marker.
  • The delta (difference) between the markers.

The values are indicated by the trace colour and highlighted with the marker colour. Delta markers can be dragged to the desired X position.

To disable Delta markers, press ALT + Click again.

Refresh Spectrum

In the spectrum and multiplexer modes, the spectrum refresh button will update all curves displayed, excluding the traces. This functionality allows for the resetting of averaging time periods, which is particularly significant for “forever” averaging.
