6 To Make Measurements

Track Mode

In this mode, when you adjust X cursor horizontally, Y cursor will automatically track
the Y value of the waveform of the corresponding channel; when you adjust Y cursor
vertically, X cursor will automatically track the X value of the waveform of the
corresponding channel. The crossing points of X cursor and Y cursor are marked by
an orange rectangle (Cursor A) and rhombus (Cursor B) respectively. When the
cursors are moved horizontally or vertically, the marks will position themselves on the
waveform automatically. When the waveform is expanded or compressed
horizontally or vertically, the marks will track the points being marked in the last
adjustment of the cursors.
Press CURS  Mode  "Track" to turn the track mode on or press CURS
continuously to switch to "Track"; the measurement results will be displayed at the
upper-left corner of the screen.
The X value at cursor A (A->X): take the trigger position as reference and

denote time or frequency (when measuring FFT waveform).
The Y value at cursor A (A->Y): take the GND as reference and use the same

unit with the unit of the current source.
The X value at cursor B (B->X): take the trigger position as reference and

denote time or frequency (when measuring FFT waveform).
The Y value at cursor B (B->Y): take the GND as reference and use the same

unit with the unit of the current source.
The horizontal difference between cursor A and cursor B (△X).

The reciprocal of the horizontal difference between cursor A and cursor B

(1/△X).
The vertical difference between cursor A and cursor B (△Y).
