4-33 Trace
To access the functions under the Trace menu, select the Shift key and then the Trace (5) key.
The Anritsu VNA Master is capable of displaying up to six traces. Trace A shows live data,
Traces B and C can show stored or trace math data, and the Recalled A-C traces allow the
user to see three recalled traces without overwriting the three current traces.
Trace A, B, C
This soft key selects which trace is the active trace. The active trace is the one that is
underlined. As the key is pressed, the underline advances from A to B to C and
back to A.
View Blank
This soft key toggles the currently active trace to be either visible or hidden.
Write/Hold
Selects if the currently active trace will continue to sweep and be updated or to hold the
current trace on screen. This is not applicable to Trace B or Trace C unless trace math
involving Trace A is active.
