Peak Search
Peak Threshold Sets the minimum amplitude of signals that the
marker can identify as a peak. For example, if a value
of 16.99 dBµV is selected, the marker moves only to
peaks that rise and fall more than the peak excursion
value above 16.99 dBµV. Pressing
Preset or turning the
Power on resets the excursion to 6 dB and the threshold
to 16.99 dBµV.
The value of the threshold appears in the
active-function block and on the lower-left side of the
display. The threshold level does not influence the trace
memory or marker position. The value of the peak
threshold level can be changed using the step keys, the
knob, or the numeric keypad. Pressing any digit, 0
through 9, on the numeric keypad brings up the
selected terminator menu.

Excursion &
Threshold
When Peak Search is set to Excursion &
Threshold
, a peak search places a
marker on a peak that meets the
Peak
Excursion
and Peak Threshold
parameters. If Peak Search Type is set
to Excursion &Threshold and no peak
satisfies the selected parameters, a
marker is placed at the center of the
trace, and the error message, No Peak
Found will appear. Refer to,
Show Errors
on page 194, to remove the error
message.
