You can use cursor to perform track measurement on the waveform of CH1 to CH4 or
MATH channel following the steps below.
1. Turn on the track measurement function
Press Cursor Mode, turn the multi-function knob to select “Track” and
press the knob. You can also press Cursor or Mode continuously to switch to
“Track”. At this point, the oscilloscope measures the specified point of the
specified source channel waveform according to the current setting and displays
the measurement results at the upper-left side of the screen. When the track
measurement parameters are modified, the measurement results will change
accordingly.
2. Select Track Axis
Press AXIS to select "X" or "Y" to be the current track axis. The default axis is
"Y".
X: You can adjust the vertical position of Y cursor, and X cursor will
automatically track the time or frequency of the wave of the corresponding
measurement source at Y cursor. You can also press Position to select the
track position of X cursor.
Y: You can adjust the horizontal position of X cursor, and Y cursor will
automatically track the vertical amplitude of the wave of the corresponding
measurement source at X cursor.
3. Select Track Position of X Cursor
Press Position to select "Oldest" or "Latest" to be the track position of X cursor.
Note: The Type softkey is only available when AXIS is set to "X".
Oldest: When you adjust the vertical position of Y cursor, if the waveforms
of corresponding measurement channels have formed multiple crossing
points along the cursor, then the X cursor will be automatically positioned
from the crossing point at the most left side of the screen.
Latest: When you adjust the vertical position of Y cursor, if the waveforms
of corresponding measurement channels have formed multiple crossing
points along the cursor, then the X cursor will be automatically positioned
from the crossing point at the most right side of the screen.
4. Specify the track sources
1) Press Cursor A and turn the multi-function knob to select the track
