Rise Time

The rise time of a signal is the time difference between the crossing of the
lower threshold and the crossing of the upper threshold for a
positive- going edge. The X cursor shows the edge being measured. For
maximum measurement accuracy, set the horizontal time/div as fast as
possible while leaving the complete rising edge of the waveform on the
display. The Y cursors show the lower and upper threshold points.

Fall Time

The fall time of a signal is the time difference between the crossing of the
upper threshold and the crossing of the lower threshold for a
negative- going edge. The X cursor shows the edge being measured. For
maximum measurement accuracy, set the horizontal time/div as fast as
possible while leaving the complete falling edge of the waveform on the
display. The Y cursors show the lower and upper threshold points.

Delay

Delay measures the time difference from the specified source 1 edge that
is closest to the center of the screen and the nearest specified source 2
edge using the middle threshold points on the waveforms.
Negative delay values indicate that the selected edge of source 1 occurred
after the selected edge of source 2.
