Peak search and signal track
Zoom in quickly to the highest
amplitude response displayed on
the CRT using the functions [PEAK
SEARCH] and [SIGNAL TRACK].
Simply press [PEAK SEARCH] to
find the signal of greatest amplitude,
then press [SIGNAL TRACK] to move
the signal to center screen and hold
it there. To zoom in for a closer look,
press [FREQ SPAN] and reduce the
span using the data controls.
Noise density measurement
Gaussian noise power density can
be measured directly because all
correction and conversion factors are
incorporated into the noise density
function. The corresponding software
command automatically converts the
noise level at the marker to noise
power density (normalized to a 1 Hz
noise power bandwidth), and displays
the value on the CRT.
Amplitude and frequency offset
The amplitudes and frequencies
displayed on the CRT can be offset by
any desired amount. This function
can normalize amplitudes and
frequencies to a standard, such
as a pilot tone, or reflect a signal's
parameters prior to amplification
or frequency conversion.
For example, consider this
measurement of 4 kHz test tones
relative to a 70 MHz pilot signal.
Rescaling the display by the pilot
signal frequency and level enables
the direct comparison between the
test tones and pilot signal in dBc.
