8.7 Setting Markers While Recording

Markers can be inserted into a recording in real time as a way of noting the
passage of events such as the powering on or off of a device. By entering

Step 1

Wait for some key event of interest to occur - like powering off
a device.

Step 2

Click the Add Marker button

to open the Marker

dialog box.

Step 3

Enter text into the dialog.

Step 4

The Marker is added to the trace near the time of the event.
Afterwards, the marker can be located by selecting Search > Go
to Markers
in the menu.
