The measurement is accomplished when you move two cursors individually along the
waveform. The software then calculates the time (distance/thickness) between these two
measurement points, along with the dB difference between them. The waveform can
either be frozen or live during the measurement. In addition, the software is valid in any
rectified mode including RF mode.
