The axes scale markers let you enlarge a portion of the display for closer examination.
Remember that enlarging a portion of the display does not increase the analyzer’s
amplitude or frequency resolution—it simply makes it easier to examine displayed
data.
Hint: After scaling to the axes scale markers, you can continue to modify the scaled
region using the [
MOVE LEFT
], [
MOVE CENTER
], [
MOVE RIGHT
], and [
CHANGE WIDTH
]
(or [

markers to the part of the
display you want to
examine.
