The steps just performed select the waveform you want to measure to; note
that the waveform you are measuring the delay from is the selected wave-
form. (See Figure 3–42.)

3. Press MEASURE
➞ Select Measrmnt (main) ➞ Delay (side) ➞
Edges
(main). A side menu of delay edges and directions appears. Choose
from one of the combinations displayed on the side menu using the
following information:
The selection you choose defines which edges you want the delayed
measurement to be made between.
The upper waveform on each icon represents the from waveform and the
lower one represents the to waveform.
The direction arrows let you specify a forward search on both waveforms
or a forward search on the from waveform and a backwards search on the
to waveform. The latter choice is useful for isolating a specific pair of
edges out of a stream.
4. To take the measurement you just specified, press Delay To

To exit the Measure Delay menu without creating a delay measurement,
press CLEAR MENU.
