Limit and margin checks evaluate if the measurement result exceeds a specified
value. You can define actions that are performed on limit or margin violation. See:
Chapter 8.2.11, "Limit and margin checks", on page 392.
Measurement categories
The various measurement type are grouped in several categories. The category
defines which sources can be analyzed.
Time domain:
●
Amp/Time: amplitude and time measurements
●
Eye: eye diagram measurements
●
Histogram: measurements on histograms
●
Protocol: available for audio signals (option R&S RTE-K5)
Protocol: advanced analysis (available if option R&S RTE-K35 is installed)
Frequency domain
●
Spectrum: measurements on spectrum waveforms
●
Histogram: measurements on histograms

8.2.1 Measurement setup in general
Up to 8 measurements can be defined. The "Overview" tab shows the general settings
for all 8 measurements. For each measurement, the source, category, and measure-
ment type are defined in the "Overview" tab, and you can also enable statistic evalua-
tion for all measurements here. For some measurement types, specific settings are
available. These settings are defined on the "Setup" tab.
8.2.1.1 Starting an automatic measurement
There are three methods to start an automatic measurement, each with slightly differ-
ent effects:
●
Using the "Measurement" icon on the toolbar:
See: "To start a measurement using the toolbar icon" on page 335.
●
Pressing the [MEAS] key on the front panel.
