a sloping line or when it terminates a flat line and has the
same limit values as the flat line, the single point is not
displayed as ∨ and ∧. The indication for a single point
segment in the displayed table of limits is SP.
enables a measurement of a single segment of the
frequency list, without loss of calibration. The segment to
be measured is selected using the entry block.
In single segment mode, selecting a measurement
calibration will force the full list sweep before prompting
for calibration standards. The calibration will then be
valid for any single segment.
If an instrument state is saved in memory with a
single-segment trace, a recall will re-display that segment
while also recalling the entire list.
defines the load as a sliding load. When such a load is
measured during calibration, the analyzer will prompt for
several load positions, and calculate the ideal load value
from it.
compensates for power loss versus the frequency sweep,by
sloping the output power upwards proportionally to
frequency. Use this softkey to enter the power slope in dB
per GHz of sweep.
toggles the power slope function on or off. With slope on,
the output power increases with frequency, starting at the
selected power level.
defines a sloping limit line segment that is linear with
frequency or other stimulus value, and is continuous to the
next stimulus value and limit. If a sloping line is the final
segment, it becomes a flat line terminated at the stop
stimulus. A sloping line segment is indicated as SL on the
displayed table of limits.
displays a Smith chart format. This is used in reflection
measurements to provide a readout of the data in terms of
impedance. It provides information such as the reflection
coefficient and input/output impedance of the DUT.
leads to a menu of special markers for use with a Smith
chart format.
lets you change the value of the smoothing aperture as a
percent of the span. When smoothing aperture is the
active function, its value in stimulus units is displayed
below its percent value in the active entry area.
Smoothing aperture is also used to set the aperture for
group delay measurements. Note that the displayed
