6 To Make Measurements RIGOL
DS6000 User’s Guide 6-39
Auto Mode
In this mode, one or more cursors will appear. You can use auto cursor measurement
to measure anyone of the 29 waveform parameters. Before using this mode, you
need to at least turn on one auto measurement parameter and the number of
cursors will change with the measurement parameters.
Press CURS ïƒ Mode ïƒ "Auto" or press CURS continuously to switch to "Auto".
The number of cursors displayed on the screen is determined by Meas.Para. that
you last selected. (Different measurement parameters need different number of
cursors.) Note: No cursor will be displayed if no auto cursor measurement parameter
is selected or there is no input of the measurement source. When the waveform is
expanded or compressed horizontally, the cursor will change accordingly.
If multiple measurement parameters are turned on later, you can use Meas.Para. to
switch among at most five measurement parameters that are turned on last and the
measurement parameter currently selected is high-lighted at the bottom of the
screen.
The following figure shows the example of auto measurement of the period of CH1
waveform.
