TIME MEASUREMENTS.
Time measurements are made by first
determining the horizontal divisions (including any partial division)
between the measurement points. Then multiply that number by the
SECIDIV scale factor; the horizontal scaling is the same for either
channel display.
NOTE
If
a
saved waveform is being measured, the scale fac-
tors for the saved waveform must be used for the calcu-
lations for both voltage and time measurements. The
VOLTSIDIV and SECIDIV readouts for the active chan-
nel may be unrelated
to
the saved display.
