Pulse Width Computation
The signal is converted to binary values by comparing to a preset threshold level, and
the time of the pulse width is plotted as the Y-axis value for that interval. The following 8
intervals are available.
PWHH: From the rising edge to the next rising edge.
PWHL: From the rising edge to the next falling edge.
PWLH: From the falling edge to the next rising edge.
PWLL: From the falling edge to the next falling edge.
PWXX: From the rising or falling edge to the next rising or falling edge.
FV: Inverse of PWHH
DUTYH: Positive (high) duty cycle within each cycle of the specified waveform
DUTYL: Negative (low) duty cycle within each cycle of the specified waveform
