Factor X ← Rescale
Stretches or compresses the selected mask segment in horizontal direction. The x-val-
ues of all points of the selected mask segment are multiplied with this factor. Factors
>1 stretch the mask segment, while factors between 0 and 1 compress it. Negative val-
ues are possible and change the algebraic sign.
To take effect, tap "Recalculate".
Remote command:
MTESt:SEGMent:RESCale:XFACtor on page 1340
Offset Y ← Rescale
Moves the mask segment vertically. The specified offset is added to the y-values of all
points of the selected mask segment.
To take effect, tap "Recalculate".

Recalculate ← Rescale
Multiplies and adds the given x- and y-factors and offsets to the coordinates of all
points of the selected mask segment.

10.2.2.2 Mask definition: waveform mask
Access: [MASKS] > "Mask Definition" > "Definition type" = "Waveform"
A waveform mask is created from an existing waveform. The waveform builds the
upper and lower limit line of the mask, and the limits are moved and stretched. The
result is a tolerance tube around the waveform that is used as mask.
During mask testing using a waveform mask, the record length is limited to 1 MSam-
ple.
The source for a waveform mask is a reference waveform. The reference waveform
can be defined before mask definition, or loaded from a file, or it is created from the
waveform to be tested.
