===Markers===
The markers allow quantifying measurement behaviors such as the band power between 2 frequencies, track signal harmonics or tracking the max amplitude of a signal…

There is also a copy function using the right click from the Infotrace that allows to paste the whole marker table to Word<sup>®</sup> or Excel<sup>®</sup>.

====Free====
When available, a free marker can be placed and moved within a graph to track specific values. A label can be associated with each free marker.
Right clicking on a free maker displays menu including "Properties", which opens edit free maker dialog box.
=====Free marker properties=====
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_03.png|framed|none]]
* Label: The label associated with the marker. The user can enter directly a name or pick <nowiki>’</nowiki>display current position<nowiki>’</nowiki> to display automatically the coordinates of the selected point.
* Position: The X position of the current marker. The position value can be fixed by entering the new value in this box.
----
* Interpolation: This setting selects the interpolation of values displayed in the marker table.
* None: no interpolation applied.
* X: x interpolation is active.
* X & Y: x and y interpolations are active.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_138.png|framed|none]]
When the interpolation function is active, the interpolated value is preceded by a "i".
Note: the interpolated values of free markers will be available only if the free marker is placed on a peak. The peak detection criteria are the same as the peak marker adjusted in the User preferences.
* Apply to
* All: the marker is associated with all curves of the graph. All Y values will be computed and displayed in the free marker tab.
* Associated to: the marker is associated with only one trace of the graph. If active is selected, the marker is applied to the current active trace of the graph.
----
====Harmonic====
Computes and displays harmonic values for the selected trace(s).
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_139.png|framed|none]]

[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_141.png|framed|none]]
When the interpolation function is active, the interpolated value is preceded by a "i".
Note: the interpolated values of harmonic markers will be available only if the harmonic marker is placed on a peak.
* Apply to
* All: the marker is associated with all curves of the graph. All Y values will be computed and displayed in the free marker tab.
* Associated to: the marker is associated with only one trace of the graph. If active is selected, the marker is applied to the current active trace of the graph.
----
====Peak====
Computes and displays peak values for the selected trace(s).
A spectrum line is detected as a peak if two following conditions are matched:
* The 2 adjacent spectrum line levels (N-1, N<nowiki>+</nowiki>1) are lower than the central spectrum line one<nowiki>’</nowiki>s
* The 2 following adjacent spectrum line levels (N-2, N<nowiki>+</nowiki>2) are lower than the central spectrum level minus the peak threshold
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_142.png|framed|none]]
=====Peak marker properties=====
----
* Threshold: In the example below, the "Threshold" is 10 dB.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_143.png|framed|none]]

[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_144.png|framed|none]]
* Number of peak: Number of peaks to be displayed. That will first display the greatest peaks.
* Interpolation
* None: no interpolation applied.
* X: x interpolation is active.
* X & Y: x and y interpolations are active.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_145.png|framed|none]]
When the interpolation function is active, the interpolated value is preceded by an "i".
* Apply to
* All: the marker is associated with all curves of the graph. All Y values will be computed and displayed in the free marker tab.
* Associated with: the marker is associated with only one trace of the graph. If active is selected, the marker is applied to the current active trace of the graph.
* Damping ratio damping ratio is calculated for each detected peak. The calculation is based on the Half-power-band-width method, where DR is the damping ratio:
:
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_146.png|framed|none]]
The calculation of the damping factor is activated through the marker properties or preferences.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_10.png]]
When it is activated an additional column is added in the corresponding marker table. The marker table can be saved in an MS Office document or simply copied and pasted.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_147.png|framed|none]]
Warning, using nonhomogeneous weighting windows (i.e.: equivalent noise bandwidths are not the same) on FRF channels leads to incorrect peak interpolation and damping results.
====Max====
Computes and displays max values for the selected trace(s).
A maximum is defined as a local maximum such that the variation in size of spectral density of ray, in relation to other local maximum surrounding it, is greater than a set threshold

Warning, using nonhomogeneous weighting windows (i.e.: equivalent noise bandwidths are not the same) on FRF channels leads to incorrect peak interpolation and damping results.
====Side band====
Displays values for a central frequency and side frequencies (left and right) defined by a delta value.
The management of side band markers selects the assumed porter and the first side band of modulation. The position of the cursor during the selection of the porter or the first side band is previously interpolated on the frequency axis, taking into account the frequency response of the weighting window used if the Interpolation setting allows this

====Kinematic markers====
The Kinematic marker helps identifying the frequencies (or orders) which match the various rotating speed in machineries. These frequencies are linked with a fundamental one (usually the main shaft rotating frequency) by fixed ratio. These ratios depend on the machinery kinematics.
Kinematic marker fits ideally the diagnostics on bearing, gear train and belt/chain systems by helping the identification of the defects<nowiki>’</nowiki> source.
To add a kinematic marker to a window, select Kinematic from the ''Display/graph/Markers'' left button.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_162.png|framed|none]]
Then it is become possible to select one marker from the list. Click ''Select Kinematic Marker ''button to open the selection dialog. Select one line from the table of the current tab and close the dialog box. The corresponding marker will be applied double clinking on a spectral graph.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_163.png|framed|none]]
This type of marker may be manipulated from any of the sub-marker lines.
=====Kinematic marker properties=====
In the kinematic marker properties (Right click on it or through marker manager) the fundamental frequency may be adjusted in Frequency unit or RPM.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_164.png|framed|none]]
=====Kinematic marker Description=====
The Kinematic descriptions for these markers are taken from ''.csv'' (or Excel™) files.
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_165.png|framed|none]]
The files may be modified to adjust the kinematics ratio. The files content are read every time the select kinematic marker is opened. No need to exit the NVGate software for update.
Each file can contain unlimited markers and group of markers. NVGate handle simultaneously multiple kinematic descriptor files. The descriptor files have to be in the following directory (default):''C:\OROS\NVGate data\Markers\Kinematic.''
The kinematic marker operations are similar to the harmonics one.
====Periodic====
Computes and displays periodic values for the selected trace(s).The periodic allows identifying the periodicity and frequency of repeated phenomena identified into time series graphs
[[Image:Display_Graphs_Traces_166.png|framed|none]]

* Apply to
* All: the marker is associated with all curves of the graph. All Y values will be computed and displayed in the free marker tab.
