The fixture simulation functions are a set of software functions for mathematically simulating measurement conditions that are different from the actual measurement conditions. The following conditions can be simulated:
•Port Extension or Automatic Port Extension
•Port reference impedance conversion
The logic diagram of the fixture simulation function is shown in the figure below.

The channel to which the function is applied must be preselected as active (See Selection of Active Trace/Channel). Fixture simulation functions affect all the traces of the channel.
