Digital channel time measurements
Automatic measurements Preshoot and Overshoot are not valid measurements
for the math FFT function or for digital channels on the mixed-signal oscilloscope.
Preshoot
Preshoot is distortion that precedes a major edge transition
expressed as a percentage of Amplitude. The X cursors show
which edge is being measured (edge closest to the trigger
reference point).
