Sample
  Sample detection is used primarily to display noise or 
noise-like signals. This detection should not be used to 
make the most accurate amplitude measurement of non 
noise-like signals. In sample mode, the instantaneous 
signal value at the present display point is placed in 
memory. When 
Sample detection is selected, Samp 
appears in the upper-left corner of the display.

Negative Peak
  Negative peak detection functions the same as peak 
detection, but selects the minimum video signal value. 
This detection should not be used to make the most 
accurate amplitude measurements of signals. When 
Negative Peak is selected, NPk appears in the upper-left 
corner of the screen.

Demod
Accesses the menu keys to select AM demodulation, FM demodulation or 
demodulation 
Off. It also accesses the Demod View On Off, Speaker On 
Off,
 and Demod Time menu keys described below.

NOTE The FM menu key only appears when the FM demod option (Option 
BAA) or Bluetooth™ FM Demodulation (Option 106) is installed. The 
two options are available on Agilent ESA-E Series spectrum analyzers 
only (E4401B, E4402B,  E4404B, E4405B and E4407B).
NOTE Segmented sweep is not available with the demodulation functions in 
this section. 
Off  Turns demodulation off.

AM  Activating AM demodulation turns off FM 
demodulation (if it is on). For non-zero spans, a 10 kHz 
resolution bandwidth is used during demodulation, 
regardless of the screen annotation.
