Next Peak
Places the marker on the next highest peak. The signal peak must 
exceed the peak threshold value by the peak excursion value. If there is 
no peak, the marker will not move. (Also see the 
Peak Excursion and 
Peak Threshold key descriptions.)

Next Pk Right Moves the marker to the next peak to the right of the current marker. 
The signal peak must exceed the peak threshold value by the peak 
excursion value. If there is no peak to the right, the marker will not 
move and the No Peak Found error message will appear on the 
display. (Also see the 
Peak Excursion and Peak Threshold key 
descriptions.)

Next Pk Left Moves the marker to the next peak to the left of the current marker. 
The signal peak must exceed the peak threshold value by the peak 
excursion value. If there is no peak to the left, the marker will not move 
and the No Peak Found error message will appear on the display. (Also 
see the

Search 
Pk-Pk Search Finds and displays the frequency (or time, if in zero span) and 
amplitude differences between the highest and lowest trace points.

Continuous Pk 
On Off
When a marker is placed on a signal and Continuous Pk (On) is pressed, 
the marker will remain on the signal even if the signal changes in 
frequency and amplitude.

N dB Points 
On Off
Activates the N dB function. Pressing N dB Points (On) turns on the 
N dB feature and activates two arrows that are N dB down from the 
marker. The frequency difference between the two arrows will be 
displayed in the upper right-hand corner of the display. If the feature is 
unable to find data N dB below the marker, the value of –100 Hz will be 
displayed in the upper right-hand corner of the display.
