3 System Overview
The following chapter provides an overview of the analyzer's capabilities and their use. This includes a
description of the basic concepts that the analyzer uses to organize, process and display measurement
data, of the screen contents, possible measured quantities, calibration methods and typical test setups.
For a systematic explanation of all menus, functions and parameters and background information refer
to the reference description on the graphical user interface (GUI Reference) in the online help system.
Basic Concepts
The analyzer provides a variety of functions to perform a particular measurement and to customize and
optimize the evaluation of results. To ensure that the instrument resources are easily accessible and
that user-defined configurations can be conveniently implemented, stored and reused the instrument
uses a hierarchy of structures:
• Global resources can be used for all measurements, irrespective of the current measurement
session or setup.
• A setup comprises a set of diagram areas with all displayed information that can be stored to a
setup file.
• The diagram areas show traces which are assigned to channels. See section Traces, Channels
and Diagram Areas.
