NOTE
Displays the output signal component that is coherent (interference possible) to
the input signal, yielding a value from 0 to 1.
Major applications include:
Evaluation of transfer functions.
Determining the contribution of individual input lines to the output of multi-
input systems.
LIN-Hz Frequency spectrum display as linear units. The range is from
DC to the maximum frequency range value.
LOG-Hz Frequency spectrum display as logarithmic units. The range is
from 1/400 to 1/4000 the maximum frequency range value to the
maximum frequency range value.
Linear The relationship between the two input signals. The degree of
relationship is indicated from 0 to 1 on a linear scale (no units).
For a single measurement, the coherence function returns 1 for all
frequencies. When measuring, be sure to use frequency averaging.
