How to Read Data and Make Measurements
Most measurements are made directly by toggling the Data/Meas field.
Measurements are available in both the CALL CONTROL screen and the
DIGITAL MEASUREMENT screen. BER is only available in the DIGITAL
MEASUREMENT screen. MAHO is only available in the CALL CONTROL
screen. Some measurements, such as BER and Average Power, have special
conditions that must be met before the measurement is accurate. These
measurements are described in detail later in this chapter.
