scale
8. Select the Mag tab.
9. To select the vertical scale f actor, click Scale:
H dB to display magnitude using the log scale,
expressed in dB relative to the reference level
offset.
H Linear to display magnitude using units equal to the
source units.
H dBm to set the reference level offset to predefined
values for dBm; see next step.
Tip. You can adjust the scale and position by clicking
the waveform handle and using the multipurpose knobs.
10. To set the reference level, click Reference Level and use
the multipurpose knobs or pop-up keypad to set the
reference level.
Tip. Reference level is the val ue at the t op of the display
screen. It only appli es to magnitude waveforms.
Adjusting the reference level positions the wavef orm
with respect to the top of the display, but does not
change the position of the waveform with respect to its
ground reference.
11. To set the reference level offset, click Ref erence Level
Offset, and use the multipurpose knobs or pop-up
keypad to set the offset.
Tip. Offset determines where zero dB is in the output
waveform. Changing offset moves the waveform with
respect to its ground reference. When the input is equal
to the offset, it will display as zero dB in the output .
