Waveform interval

The time interval between record points as displayed.

XY format

A display format that compares the voltage level of two waveform records

point by point. It is useful for studying phase relationships between

two waveforms.

YT format

The conventional oscilloscope display format. It shows the voltage of a

waveform record (on the vertical axis) as it varies over time (on the

horizontal axis).
