<h2>Channel Menu &nbsp;&nbsp;</h2>

<p>The <span style="font-style: italic;"><I>Channel</I></span> menu provides all 
 channel settings and the functions to activate, modify and store different 
 channels. &nbsp;</p>

<p class=Dropdownline><img src="../../small_images/info_red.jpg" x-maintain-ratio="TRUE" width="32px" height="37px" border="0" class="img_whs1"><a class="dropspot" href="javascript:kadovTextPopup(this)" id="a1" style="font-style: normal; /*begin!kadov{{*/ position: relative; /*}}end!kadov*/ ">Channels</a><script

 <p class=Dropdowntext>A channel contains hardware-related settings to specify 
 how the network analyzer collects data. The channel settings can be divided 
 into three main groups:</p>
 <ul type="disc" class="whs2">

  <p class=List>Control of the measurement process 
 <span style="font-style: italic;"><I>(Sweep, Trigger, Average)</I></span></p></li>
