Traces

A trace is the display of the measured data points connected by a line. An unlimited number of traces can be displayed in a single chart to represent that data set. Channels recreate measurement setups in the instrument when a new measurement is required.

To compare measured data sets from the same port, save one of the traces to memory. Learn how.

Trace Names

Trace names appear to the left of the chart.

The trace with the box around the Tr name is the Active (selected) trace.
