o  Ref Level Manually set the value of the reference line. Enter a negative 
value by pressing  Run/Hold (+/-)  either before or after typing a value.  
o  Ref Position Manually set the position of the reference line.  Values must be 
between 0 (TOP line) and 10 (BOTTOM line)

Electrical Delay 
Electrical delay is a mathematical function that simulates a variable length of 
lossless transmission line. Use the electrical delay feature to compensate for the 
linear phase shift through a device and view only the deviation from linear phase 
of the device. 
You can set the electrical delay independently for each measurement trace. To 
apply an electrical delay to all measurement traces, use Port Extensions. Learn 
how on page 50. 
Phase is available only with S11 measurements – NOT S21. 
Learn how to set Phase formats on page 43. 
How to set Electrical Delay 
  Press Scale / Amptd  
  Then More 
  Then Electrical Delay 
  Enter a time value using the numeric keypad, the  ▲|▼ arrows, or the rotary 
knob. 
  Press a multiplier key. Learn about multiplier abbreviations on page 19. 
Electrical Delay can also be set using the Mkr->Delay feature. Learn how on page 
144. 
Phase Offset 
Phase format is available only with S11 measurements. Learn more on page 43. 
Phase offset mathematically adjusts the phase measurement by a specified 
amount, up to 360°. Use this feature in the following ways: 
Improve the display of a phase measurement. This is similar to the way you 
would change the reference level in an amplitude measurement. Change the 
phase response to center or align the response on the screen.
