Making Cursor Measurements
Cursors allow you to make precise digital measurements
on waveforms. This can be done on live waveforms,
recorded waveforms, and on saved waveforms.
Using Horizontal Cursors on a Waveform
To use the cursors for a voltage measurement, do the
following:
1
CURSOR
From scope mode, display the
cursor key labels.
2
F1
Press to highlight . Observe
that two horizontal cursors are
displayed.
3
F2
Highlight the upper cursor.
4
Move the upper cursor to the
desired position on the screen.
5
F2
Highlight the lower cursor.
6
Move the lower cursor to the
desired position on the screen.
Note
Even when the key labels are not displayed at the
bottom of the screen, you still can use the arrow
keys. This allows full control of both cursors while
having full screen view.
Figure 25. Voltage Measurement with Cursors
The screen shows the voltage difference between the two
cursors and the voltage at the cursors. (See Figure 25.)
Use horizontal cursors to measure the amplitude, high or
low value, or overshoot of a waveform.
