13 Measurements
 
Base
The Base of a waveform is the mode (most common value) of the lower 
part of the waveform, or if the mode is not well defined, the base is the 
same as Minimum. The Y cursor shows the value being measured.
Overshoot
Overshoot is distortion that follows a major edge transition expressed as a 
percentage of Amplitude. The X cursors show which edge is being 
measured (edge closest to the trigger reference point).
