3.4.4 Working with waveforms
The R&S RTE can create and display many waveform types. The most importand are:
●
Channel waveforms:
For each input channel, one channel waveform is shown.
●
Reference waveforms:
Four waveforms can be used as reference for comparison and analysis.
●
Math waveforms:
Eight mathematic waveforms can be created with mathematic operations per-
formed on channel, reference, and other math waveforms.
●
Zoom waveforms:
Show the details of waveforms.
●
XY-waveforms:
Four XY-waveforms can be created. Each XY-waveform is built from the voltage
values of two source waveforms.
●
Digital waveforms:
The Mixed Signal Option R&S RTE-B1 provides 16 digital channels grouped in two
logic probes (pods) with 8 channels each.
Waveform handling
The R&S RTE can show and analyze many waveforms. To handle this multitude while
keeping track of it, the R&S RTE provides intelligent support:
●
The color system helps to distinguish the waveforms. The color of the vertical
rotary knobs indicates the signal that is focused (selected). The color of each
waveform can be changed, the color of its signal icon and of the illuminated keys is
adjusted to the new color. Alternatively, a color table can be assigned to a wave-
form.
