Technical Data Sheet describes each available option by both its number and its name.
The MS20xxB compact VNA Master and the S412E LMR Master models are two-port, 1-path
vector network analyzers that allow S11 and S21 measurements (Insertion Loss and
Return Loss) with a single connection.
The MS2026B, MS2028B, and MS20xxC VNA Master models are full-reversing, two-port
vector network analyzers that allow reflection measurements from both ports and allow
transmission measurements in both directions (S11, S21, S22, and S12 measurements) with a
single connection.
Throughout this manual, the terms in Table 1-1 are used to indicate VNA Master models.
Most of the measurement screen figures in this manual are taken from the MS20xxC in order
to demonstrate the fullest feature set of the VNA Master product. Depending on the model of
your VNA Master and the installed options, some features and screen details may differ.

Chapter 2 — VNA Display Overview
2-1 Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of the display features that are found in the VNA Master
and the S412E LMR Master. The topics include active traces, trace format, number of traces,
markers, and limits.
2-2 Powerful Display Capabilities
These vector network analyzers have a flexible display capable of single, dual, tri, and quad
displays, meaning that you can subdivide the measurement display area into 2, 3, or
4 sections. In addition, the vector network analyzers support the display of up to four traces
in each single, dual, tri, or quad display. Becoming familiar with these flexible display
capabilities is important before you begin any calibrations and measurements.
The function hard keys in Vector Network Analyzer mode without Option 2 (Time Domain)
are:
Freq/Dist, Scale, Sweep, Measure, Marker
The function hard keys in Vector Network Analyzer mode with Option 2 (Time Domain) are:
Freq/Time/Dist, Scale, Sweep, Measure, Marker
Flexible Features For Displaying Results
If you are not yet familiar with the menus that control trace display, refer to the “Measure
Menu” on page 6-46, to the “Number of Traces Menu” on page 6-51, and to the “Trace Format
Menu” on page 6-52. To select the Measure soft key menu on your vector network analyzer,
press the Measure function hard key (you must be in Vector Network Analyzer mode for this
example).
Perform the following steps to observe the trace format features:
1. In MS20xxC instruments, the default view uses Trace Format = Quad with Number of
Traces = 4. Refer to Figure 2-1 on page 2-4.
In MS20xxB and S412E instruments, the default view uses Trace Format = Dual with
Number of Traces = 2.
2. Beginning with the default view, set Trace Format = Single, and Number of Traces = 4.
Notice how all 4 traces are overlaid on a single graph. Refer to Figure 2-2 on page 2-4.
3. Next, set Trace Format = Dual. Note how the 4 traces are assigned to the split display.
TR1 (Trace 1) and TR3 are assigned to the top graph. TR2 and TR4 are assigned to the
bottom graph. Refer to Figure 2-3 on page 2-5.
4. Next change Trace Format to Tri. Note how the 4 traces are assigned on this display.
TR3 and TR4 are now overlaid in the bottom half of the display area. Refer to
Figure 2-4 on page 2-5.

5. Now return to the default display of Trace Format = Quad. Change the Number of
Traces from 4 to 1. Note how the top left quadrant is filled, while the other three
quadrants have no data. Refer to Figure 2-5 on page 2-6.
6. Increment the number of traces from 1 back to 4 and note how the vector network
analyzer adds the additional traces to the display. Refer to Figure 2-6 on page 2-6.
(Note that Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-6 are the same measurement illustration.)
7. At this point, the display is back to the MS20xxC default setting of Quad with 4 traces.
8. For MS20xxB and S412E instruments, set Trace Format = Dual, and set Number of
Traces = 2. At this point, the instrument is back to the default setting of Trace
Format = Dual with Number of Traces = 2.
Regardless of the Trace Format that is selected, the number of traces that are displayed is
controlled by the Number of Traces soft key. For a brief description, refer to the examples that
accompany Figure 6-50, “Trace Format Menu” on page 6-52.
Active Trace
Notice on the Quad trace format that one trace has a red outline box on the graph, and the
trace number in the Instrument Settings Summary (on the left side of the sweep window) is
outlined with a red rectangle. This is the active trace, and only one trace is active at a time.
Any display or format selection is applied only to the active trace.
Changing the Active Trace
You can change the active trace in four ways:
1. In the Measure menu, press the Active Trace soft key to select the trace that you want to
be active. The pop-up list box displays the active traces (TR1 through TR4) and
parenthetically also lists the unique attributes that are associated with each trace (in
other words, S-parameter, graph type, domain, and smoothing percentage). After a
selection, notice how the active trace indicator on the display has changed. For
example, if the active trace changed from TR1 to TR3, then the red highlight box moved
from the upper left quadrant to the lower left quadrant.
Not only does the graph get highlighted in red, but the Instrument Settings Summary
legend on the left side of the sweep window also highlights the active trace. This
becomes more important when you are trying to distinguish between active traces and
other traces when they are all overlaid on one graph.
2. In the Measure menu, turn the rotary knob clockwise, and the active trace indicator
moves clockwise on the quad trace format display. If you turn the rotary knob
counterclockwise (CCW), then the active trace indicator moves in a CCW direction on
the display.
3. In the Measure menu, use the Up/Down/Left/Right arrow keys to select the active trace.
4. On instruments with touch screen displaying multiple traces, touching a trace area
causes that trace to become active.
In any menu, when no active parameter is selected, the rotary knob or the arrow keys allow
you to select an active trace.

Another powerful feature to become acquainted with is the ability to Maximize and Minimize
an active trace. On the quad default display, select Maximize Active Trace from the Measure
menu, and note how this feature zooms in on the active trace and uses maximum area to
display the measurement results. Next, select Minimize Active Trace to return to the original
trace format of quad display. On instruments with touch screen, touching an active trace
twice in rapid succession alternately maximizes and minimizes that trace. Note that this
touch ability is disabled when the marker menu is active because of the touch and drag ability
for markers.
Combining the previously described active trace selection techniques with this Maximize and
Minimize active trace feature allows for maximum flexibility in extracting the measurement
results from the display.
Touch Screen Trace Features
These touch features differ when the Marker menu is displayed (refer to “Markers on a Touch
Screen” on page 2-8).
Selecting a Trace
In VNA Measurements view on touch screen instruments, when Trace Format is Dual, Tri, or
Quad, you can touch or tap either the trace itself or the trace data in the Instrument Settings
Summary (left edge of sweep window) to select a trace.
These touch points function in the same manner when using the Field Measurements view in
Display Type Dual.
In Display Type Overlay, however, only a touch on trace data for TR2 in the Instrument
Settings Summary selects Trace 2 as the active trace. Any touch on the sweep window selects
Trace 1 (the upper or top trace) as the active trace.
If a Marker is active on a trace, and if the Marker menu is displayed, then after that trace is
active, an additional touch within the sweep window affects the location of the active marker
(refer to “Markers on a Touch Screen” on page 2-8).
Maximizing and Minimizing Traces
In VNA Measurements view, when a trace is active in Dual, Tri, or Quad format, a quick
double tap on either the trace itself or the trace data in the Instrument Settings Summary
maximizes the active trace. Another double tap minimizes the trace. When a trace is
maximized, touching a different trace in the Instrument Settings Summary displays that
touched trace in maximized view. These touch points are not functional when using the Field
Measurements view,
This touch feature differs when a Marker is active on a trace and the Marker menu is
displayed.
Trace Description
A trace is a measurement result that can have user-defined attributes assigned to it for
display purposes. You can assign the following attributes for a trace: S-parameter, Graph
Type, Domain, and Smoothing. Using the Scale menu, you can independently set the scale for
each trace.
