Shorts are
assigned a

of
0 ohms
,but
delay and

may
still

SINGLE
POINT
sets
the

at
a
single
stimulus
point.
If
limit
lines
are
on,
the
upper
limit
value
of
a
single
point
limit
is
displayed
as
n
9,
and
the
lower
limit
is

A
limit
test
at
a
single
point
not
terminating
a
at

line
tests
the
nearest

point.
A
single

limit
can
be
used
as
a
termination
for
a
at

or

limit
segment.
When
a

terminates
a

line
or
when
it
terminates
a

has
the

values
as

SINGLE
SEG
SWEEP
enables
a
measurement
of
a
single
segment
of
the
frequency
list,
without
loss
of
calibration.
The
segment
to
be
measured
is
selected
using
the
entry
block.
In
single
segment
mode
,
selecting
a
measurement
calibration
will
force

before
prompting
for

standards
.
The

then
be
valid
for

single
segment.
If

state
is
saved in

SLOPING LINE
denes a sloping limit line segment that
is linear with frequency
or other stimulus value
, and is continuous
to the next stimulus
value and limit. If a sloping line is
the nal segment it becomes
a at line terminated at the stop stimulus
.
A sloping line
segment is indicated as SL on the displayed table of
limits.
