Using Vertical Cursors on a Waveform
To use the cursors for a time measurement, do the
following:
c
From Scope mode, display the
Cursor Key functions.
d
Press to highlight . Observe
that two vertical cursors are
displayed. Markers (-) identify the
point where the cursors cross the
waveform.
e
If necessary, choose the trace A
or B.
f
Highlight the left cursor.
g
Move the left cursor to the desired
position on the waveform.
h
Highlight the right cursor.
i
Move the right cursor to the
desired position on the waveform.
Figure 2-19. Time Measurement with Cursors
The readout shows the time difference ‘t’ between the
cursors and the voltage difference between the two
markers (See Figure 2-19).
The signal frequency is displayed behind 1/t if exactly 1
signal period is between the cursors.
