Description
To turn off or select cursor measurement type:
X cursor: To measure any point at time base (cursor is parallel to the vertical
axis)
Y cursor: To measure any point at voltage level (cursor is parallel to the horizon-
tal axis)
To select X1, X2 or X1+X2 cursor for X cursor function
To select Y1, Y2 or Y1+Y2 cursor for Y cursor function
To select channel 1, channel 2 or Math for cursor measurement

Cursor measurement display
• The delta (symbol) indicates the
difference between X1 and X2 or
between Y1 and Y2 cursors
• For X cursor, the X cursors display
the values (volts or amperes) and
time relative to the cursors trigger
point for the selected waveform
source
• For Y cursor, the Y cursors display
the values (volts or amperes) for
the selected waveform source
