Oscilloscope Mode

Use the Oscilloscope mode for pulse type waveforms that are triggered by an
external signal. Oscilloscope mode measurements only work when a single val-
ued waveform, and not an eye diagram, is present on the screen.
The measurement toolbars provide measurements such as rise time, fall time,
overshoot, and Vp-p. All measurements, with the exception of jitter, can be
performed on any of the following sources: channels, waveform memories, and
math functions. One of the above sources must be turned on in order to per-
form an oscilloscope measurement.
If more than one source is turned on and you initiate a measurement, the
Enter Measurement Info dialog box opens. This dialog box allows you to select
the source you want to use for the measurement.
Measurement results appear below the display graticule. A maximum of four
pulse measurement test results are displayed and include any failures or
instrument messages that may occur.
