Managing OCA Test Results

When the acquisition is taken (see Starting a Measurement on page 153 for
details on how to perform a test), the trace will be displayed in the graph
with information along the following axis values:

X axis: wavelength in nm.

Y axis: optical power expressed in dBm, as measured in the optical
resolution bandwidth (RBW) of the module. This reference RBW is
shown at the bottom of the graph.

If the current trace was previously saved, the graph will display the file
name of the current trace in the status bar.

The graph will display peak indicators for all the channels found by the
application with a red vertical line over the peaks to indicate the peak
position.
