For more details on how to measure the phase noise of a 
signal, refer to “Measuring Phase Noise” on page 55.
Marker Trace
Auto 1 2 3 4
Places a marker on the selected trace, if no markers have 
been previously turned on. If a marker is currently active, 
press  Marker Trace  until  1,  2,  3, or 4  is underlined: the active 
marker moves to the selected trace.
Selecting  Auto  mode moves the marker to the automatically 
selected trace. The trace selection will search for the lowest 
numbered trace in the following mode order: Clear-write, 
Max-hold, Min-hold and View. If there are no traces in any of 
these modes, it selects trace 1.

Optimize 
Phase Noise
This softkey is valid only when span fall in the 
range of 100 Hz and 100 kHz. After enabling 
this softkey, the 1st LO Loop filter bandwidth 
will be changed from approx. 5 kHz to 120- 150 
kHz automatically, which optimizes the phase 
noise close in to the carrier.

 > Function > Phase Noise

NOTE
Optimize Phase noise (On) will worsen phase noise accuracy far away 
from the carrier. When testing phase noise far away from the carrier, 
select Optimize Phase noise (Off).
