Take a Snapshot of Measurements
Snapshot executes all of the single waveform measurements available on the
selected waveform once and displays the results. (The measurements are not
continuously updated.) All of the measurements listed in Table 3–5 on page 3–73
except for Delay and Phase are displayed.
You can display a snapshot (see Figure 3–43) on any channel or ref memory, but
only one snapshot can be displayed at a time.

To use snapshot, obtain a stable display of the waveform to be measured
(pressing AUTOSET may help). Then do the following steps:
1. Press MEASURE
➞ SNAPSHOT (main).
2. Press either SNAPSHOT
(main) or AGAIN (side) to take another snapshot.
3. Push Remove Measrmnt.
Consider the following rules when taking a snapshot:
Snapshot does not warn you if a waveform is improperly scaled (clipped,
low signal amplitude, low resolution, and so on).
