7.1 Zoom
The zoom functions allow you to magnify a specific section of the diagram in order to
view more details. Y
ou can define several zoom areas for the same diagram and even
couple them, or you use the hardware zoom.
7.1.1
Methods of zooming
The R&S RT
O6 provides various ways of zooming: You define the section of a diagram
that you want to magnify, and the zoomed view is shown in a separate zoom diagram.
Additionally, you can magnify the diagram directly: The hardware zoom changes the
horizontal and vertical scales of the diagram so that you see the selected section.
There are different ways to initiate and configure the zoom function:
●
Fingertip zoom: magnifies the waveforms around your fingertip. When you drag
your finger, the magnifier moves, too. You can convert the fingertip zoom into a
standard zoom diagram.
●
Graphical method: you draw, move and adjust the zoom area on the touchscreen
– a very quick and simple method for standard zoom and hardware zoom.
●
Numeric method: you enter x- and y-values in a dialog box or adjust them using
navigation controls. These are precise ways which can be used to optimize a
graphically defined zoom.
With the numeric method there are two ways of defining the zoom area:
– Specifying start and stop values for the x- and y-axes; the acquired data
within those values is zoomed.
