TMODe
Command :MARKer:TMODe {OFF|ON|AUTO}
The TMODe command allows you to select the time marker mode. The
choices are: OFF, ON and AUTO. When OFF, time marker measurements
cannot be made. When the time markers are turned on, the X and O markers
can be moved to make time and voltage measurements. The AUTO mode
allows you to make automatic marker placements by specifying channel,
slope, and occurrence count for each marker. Also the Statistics mode may
be used when AUTO is chosen. Statistics mode allows you to make
minimum, maximum and mean time interval measurements from the X
marker to the O marker.
