Getting Started Getting Started with the Eye-Diagram Analyzer The custom keypad The eye-diagram analyzer comes with a custom keypad that snaps into the front panel of 70004A displays. The keypad gives you quick access to common instrument functions. (Each of these functions can also be accessed using the normal softkey menus.) If you have the custom keypad, practice using it. You will find that the time required, for many of the procedures in this book, will

This mode uses the pattern trigger which allows the display to show the same portion of the data stream from sweep to sweep. Mask/limit lines provide pass/fail testing Mask/limit lines are displayed geometric shapes that define the acceptable limits and shape of an eye-diagram. The following figure shows a mask. Use masks for pass/fail testing and as an aid to erro
