The SCPI command in the table below selects the marker and sets the marker
control mode as described under Normal, Delta, Fixed and Off, below. All
interactions and dependencies detailed under the control description are enforced
when the remote command is sent.
Remote
Command
:CALCulate:MARKer[1]|2|…|24:MODE POSition | DELTa | FIXed | OFF
:CALCulate:MARKer[1]|2|…|24:MODE?
Example
:CALC:MARK2:MODE POS
:CALC:MARK:MODE?
Notes Two additional parameters, SPAN and BAND, are supported for backwards compatibility only and
should not be used for new designs. Both the SPAN and BAND legacy parameters are aliased to
POSition. They are never returned to a query. See "Band Function Backwards Compatibility" on
page 346 for more information
Upon receipt of this command, for any parameter except Off, if the selected marker was Off, it is set to
the specified mode and placed at the center of the screen on the trace specified by the marker’s Trace
attribute
Couplings The marker specified by this command becomes the selected marker on the front panel
Preset
OFF
(all markers)
State Saved The marker control mode (Normal, Delta, Fixed, Off) and X-Axis value are saved in instrument state
Annunciation Annunciation in the marker result block in the upper-right corner of the display indicates the X-Axis
value and Y-Axis result of the marker

Notes
In legacy analyzers, only a Reference marker could be Fixed, and it was always Fixed. Additionally, it
could not be moved. In X-Series, any marker can be set to Fixed and can be moved to any X or Y value
Setting a marker that is OFF to ON (1) selects the marker, puts it in Normal mode and places it at the
center of the screen
Setting a marker that is not OFF to ON has no effect (does not change its control mode)
The response to the query is ON unless the marker is OFF
In pre-X-Series analyzers, pressing Delta (or sending :CALC:MARK:MODE:DELTa) always moved
the reference marker to the Delta marker. Now it only does so if the marker was already a Delta marker
