3.16.2.4.19 MCP Display

The MCP Display element embeds the measurement display of a spectrum analyzer device in multi channel power measurement mode into the screen. The display may be scaled to an almost arbitrary size, however the following limitations apply:

• The annotation labels which reflect the actual device settings are not scaled with the display element. If the element is very small, the labels may overlap and become unreadable.
• Channels may displayed very narrow if the display is too small, labels may become unreadable in this case.

The attributes listed below may be configured to customize a display element of this type:

• device name --- The name of the spectrum analyzer device to operate.
• privilege level --- The privilege level necessary to operate the spectrum analyzer device.
• label --- The annotation label displayed above the spectrum display.
• label color --- The color of the label displayed above the spectrum display. Colors may be specified by standard color names like red / green / blue or using a hexadecimal RGB notation. '#FFFF00' for example specifies yellow. You may click to the color example field in order to open a color chooser dialog and select the color from there.
• label font --- The font attribute sets the font of the label shown above the element. This font also applies to the name labels shown below the channel bars.
• bar width calculation --- This parameter lets you select how the screen element calculates the width of the bars from the channels' bandwidth. 'all same width' draws all bars with the same width, regardless of the channels' bandwidth. 'strict proportional' calculates the width of the bars following the ratio of bandwidths - even if this leads to very narrow bars with unreadable figures. 'intelligent' which is the default, draws wide channels wider than narrow ones, but limits the ratio of bar widths to 1:3.
