Y-Cursor Measurement
The Y- cursor measurement are two horizontal lines that can be adjusted
vertically to measure volts or amperes. Like the X- cursor, you can select
the cursor’s mode to be either in single cursor line Y1 or Y2, or the
combination of Y1 and Y2 cursor lines. The selected cursor line is
displayed as a long- dashed vertical line while the non- selected cursor line
is shown as a short- dashed vertical line.
The Y1, Y2 and delta of Y1 and Y2 (D) are displayed at the top right of
the waveform display area.
1 On the Y-cursor menu page, press F2 to select cursor mode to be in
either single Y1 or Y2 cursor line, or the combination of Y1 and Y2
cursor line from a pull- up menu.
2 Turn the rotary switch to adjust the Y1 and Y2 cursor line. If both
cursor lines are selected, both lines move in parallel with the same
delta Y value.
3 Press F3 to display the pull- up menu to select the channel source to be
measured.
4 In Figure 3- 33, two cursor lines — Y1 and Y2 mode — are selected, the
measurement is made for the signal at channel 1.
The Y1 measurement is –154.00 mV.
The Y2 measurement is +22.00 mV.
The delta of Y1 and Y2 voltage measurement is +176.00 mV.
