trace.

the trace, relative to its current position.

12.9.3 Marker Search Ranges
When you position markers automatically, the R&S FPC searches the complete current
span for potential marker positions. Sometimes, it can be sufficient to search on a
smaller frequency range. In that case, you can define a marker search range.
Defining marker search range
1. Press the "Mkr→" key to open the marker positioning menu.
2. Select the "Search Range" menu item to open the search range menu.
3. Select the "Search Range 1" menu item.
The R&S FPC opens a submenu to configure search range 1.
4. Select the "Lower Limit ..." menu item.
The R&S FPC opens an input field to set the lower limit of search range 1.
5. Enter the lower limit of the search range you want to use.
The R&S FPC draws a vertical line at the position you selected and labels it with 1
(for search range 1).
6. Select the "Upper Limit ..." menu item.
The R&S FPC opens an input field to set the upper limit of search range 1.
7. Enter the upper limit of the search range you want to use.
