To switch the synchronization cursor
When synchronizing instruments, a synchronization cursor automatically
appears in the oscilloscope. By default, the active cursor within the visible range
is used as synchronization cursor. For more information, see "Synchronization
timestamp" on page89. To see how you can zoom, synchronize, and scroll in
instruments, watch our video Navigating in Instruments.
The synchronization cursor is marked by a synchronization symbol at the bottom
of the cursor line .
To switch the synchronization cursor, click the line of the other cursor. Altern-
atively, you can press CTRL+1.
The cursor becomes active and is used as synchronization cursor. Thus, the
timestamp that is used for indicating the synchronization changes in all other
instruments. For example, in other oscilloscopes the synchronization cursor is
also switched accordingly.
If you have selected the sample-wise navigation mode, the instrument in which
you have performed the last action provides this sample information. In an oscil-
loscope, this is indicated by the dark blue background color of the cursor label. All
other synchronized oscilloscopes are shown with transparent cursor labels .

als for the respective signal. For more information, see "To change the number of
decimals" on page56.
