I did not intend to change the measurement, only the displayed value. The
measurement is unchanged.

In doing so, you have reassigned the center of the Smith Chart to 77.7
ohms. Therefore, even if your are measuring a matched 50-ohm resistor, it
will read 77.7-ohms. Set it to 200 ohms, and a 50-ohm resistor will read
200 ohms. Set it to 50-ohms and it will read 50-ohms.
This is incorrect. Changing the system impedance will NOT change the
measured impedance value. It only changes metrics based on Zo like Smith
Chart plot, Return Loss & SWR.
