Measurement tabs The tabs organize measurements by their type. The Measurement tab is the default set of Amplitude
and T
ime measurements that are built in to the instrument.
Measurement description
(graphic and text)
Shows a graphic and short description of the selected measurement. Use this information to verify that
the selected measurement is correct for what you want to measure.
Source Selects the measurement source. If the measurement requires more than one source (for example,
Skew, Phase, or many Power measurements), the menu shows two source fields from which to select.
Add button Adds the selected measurement as a measurement badge to the Results bar. You can also double-tap
a listed measurement to add it to the Results bar.
