Measurement Displays

There are two measurement displays available; “Readout” and “Profile”. The difference

between the displays is explained below.

Display Definition

Profile:

The measurement of the

active channel is

displayed as a graphical

trace to which markers

and gating patterns can

be added.

Readout:

The measurement of the

active channel is

displayed as a digital

readout. In this mode, a

waveform of the signal

under test is not shown,

but the numeric

information is identical to

that in Profile mode.
