Key Points
Taking Measurements. You can display up to four automated
measurements at a time for a single waveform (or divided among the
waveforms). The waveform channel must be on (displayed) to make
a measurement.
Automated measurements cannot be taken on reference or math
waveforms or while using XY or scan mode.
Measurement Type Definition
Cyc RMS Calculates a true RMS measurement of one
complete cycle of the waveform
Mean Calculates the arithmetic mean voltage over the
entire record
Period Calculates the time for one cycle
Pk-Pk Calculates the absolute difference between the
maximum and minimum peaks of the entire
waveform
Freq Calculates the frequency of the waveform by
measuring the first cycle
