6 To Make Measurements

Manual Mode

In this mode, you can adjust the cursors manually to measure the X (or Y) values,
the X increment (or Y increment) between the cursors and the reciprocal of the X
increment of the waveform of the specified source (CH1-CH4 or MATH). The X
cursors are a pair of vertical dotted lines and are usually used to measure the time
parameters. The Y cursors are a pair of horizontal dotted lines and are usually used
to measure the voltage parameters.
Press CURS  Mode  "Manual" to turn the manual mode on or press CURS
continuously to switch to "Manual"; the measurement results will be displayed at the
upper-left corner of the screen in the following mode.
The X value at cursor A (A->X): take the trigger position as reference.

The X value at cursor B (B->X): take the trigger position as reference.

The Y value at cursor A (A->Y): take the channel ground as reference.

The Y value at cursor B (B->Y): take the channel ground as reference.

The horizontal difference between cursors A and B (△X).

The reciprocal of the horizontal difference between cursors A and B (1/△X).

The vertical difference between cursors A and B (△Y).

If needed, please refer to the following steps to modify the parameters of manual
cursor measurement.
1. Select the display mode
Press DisplayMode to select "X", "Y" or "X-Y".
X: only display the X cursors (a pair of vertical solid/dotted lines).

Y: only display the Y cursors (a pair of horizontal solid/dotted lines).

X-Y: display the x cursors (a pair of vertical solid/dotted lines) and Y cursors
