Separated Limit Lines Figure 5-21 shows separated limit lines and an editing table example .
This example can be used for lter testing that only requires insertion
loss limits . Dummy limit values (+5000 for upper and 05000 for
lower , for example) should be entered for the no limit areas .
Figure 5-21. Separated Limit Lines
Limits are only checked at each of the actual measured data points .
It is possible for a device to be out of speci cation without a
limit test failure indication if you do not select sucient sweep
parameter points within a segment.
By combining the limit test and the list sweep function, high
throughput limit line/testing can be performed for go/no-go testing.
F or detailed information on the list sweep , see \List Sweep " in this
chapter .
Limit line information is lost if you press 4 Preset 5 or turn o the
power . However , the 4 Save 5 keys can save the limit line information
along with all other current instrument settings when the limit lines
are on. See the T ask R eference manual for details .
