Analyzing or Reanalyzing a Trace

Note: This function is available in Advanced mode only.

You can analyze a displayed trace at any time. Analyzing or reanalyzing a

trace will:

 produce an events table for a trace, if there was none (for example, the

Automatically Analyze Data after Acquisition feature was not selected;

see Enabling or Disabling Analysis After Acquisition on page 68).

 reanalyze a trace acquired with a previous version of the software.

 re-create the events table if it was modified.

 perform a Pass/Fail test, if enabled (for more information, see Setting

Pass/Fail Thresholds on page 70).

If you prefer to focus your analysis on a specific fiber span, see Analyzing

the Fiber on a Specific Fiber Span on page 157.
