Moving the Reference Waveform Vertically
10.
Tap the Trace Shift soft key and then the Trace Shift Up or Trace Shift Down soft key. The
reference trace will move vertically.

Clearing the Reference Trace
12.
Tap the Clear Ref. soft key. The reference trace will be cleared. If the differential trace is
displayed at this point, it will also be cleared.
Explanation
You can perform averaged measurements or real-time measurements while retaining the previous
waveform on the screen (reference trace). You can display the waveform being measured and the
reference waveform at the same time to compare them. Waveform data loaded from a file can also be
used as a reference trace.
Note
• You cannot perform waveform analysis or event analysis on a reference trace.
• When you load waveform data from a file, the existing reference trace is cleared.
