5.  Set the Horizontal/Vertical Measurement Unit 
⚫  When "X" is selected under Select, you can set the horizontal measurement 
unit. When the source can be Math1-Math4, this menu is grayed out and 
disabled. 
Press More → Hori. Unit, and rotate the multifunction knob    to select 
the horizontal measurement unit. Then press down the knob to select it. You 
can also press Hori. Unit continuously or enable the touch screen to select 
it. The available units include "s", "Hz", "Degree(°)", and "Percent(%)". 
➢  s: measures the time value at X Cursor (taking the trigger position as 
reference). The measurement results include AX, BX, △X, and 1/△X. 
Wherein, AX, BX, and △X all indicate time, and 1/△X indicates 
frequency. 
➢  Hz: measures the frequency value at X Cursor (taking the trigger 
position as reference). The measurement results include AX, BX, △X, 
and 1/△X. Wherein, AX, BX, and △X all indicate frequency, and 1/△X 
indicates time. 
➢  Degree(°): measures the phase value at X Cursor. The measurement 
results include AX, BX, and △X, and they are all expressed in degree.   
This oscilloscope allows you to set the reference position for the phase 
according to your needs. After adjusting X Cursor to a desired position, 
press Set Reference to take the current cursor position as the 
reference. The current positions of Cursor A and Cursor B are 
respectively defined as "0°" and "360°". Meanwhile, two vertical 
cursors (in blue) that cannot be moved are displayed on the screen as 
the phase reference position (the phase position at "0°" and "360°" are 
respectively marked by a solid line and a dotted line). Before you set 
manually, the oscilloscope adopts the default phase reference position. 
➢  Percent(%): measures ratio at X Cursor. The measurement results 
include AX, BX, and △X, and they are all expressed in percentage. This 
oscilloscope allows you to set the reference position for the ratio 
according to your needs. After adjusting X Cursor to a desired position, 
press Set Reference to take the current cursor position as the 
reference. The current positions of Cursor A and Cursor B are 
respectively defined as "0%" and "100%". Meanwhile, two cursors (in 
blue) that cannot be moved are displayed on the screen as the ratio 
reference position (the ratio position at "0%" and "100%" are 
respectively marked by a solid line and a dotted line). Before you set 
manually, the oscilloscope adopts the default ratio reference position. 
 
⚫  When "Y" is selected under Select, you can set the vertical measurement 
unit. When the source can be Math1-Math4, this menu is grayed out and 
disabled. 
Press More → Vert. Unit, and rotate the multifunction knob    to select 
the vertical measurement unit. Then press down the knob to select it. You 
can also press Vert. Unit continuously or enable the touch screen to select it.
