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.
Each trace in a chart can be the result of a unique or duplicate measurement or equation.
Each trace can have unique Scale and Markers.
The date and time the measurement was made appears in the top right corner of the chart.
