Cursors

Cursors Overview

Cursors are important tools that aid you in measuring signal values.
Cursors are markers - lines, cross-hairs, or arrows - that you can move
around the grid or the waveform itself. Use cursors to make fast,
accurate measurements and eliminate guesswork. There are two basic
types:

Horiz(ontal) (generally Time or Frequency) cursors are markers
that you move horizontally along the waveform. Place them at a
desired location along the time axis to read the signal's amplitude
at the selected time.

Vert(ical) (Voltage) cursors are lines that you move vertically on
the grid to measure the amplitude of a signal.
Cursor Sub-types include Absolute, Delta, Abs+Delta, and Slope.
Each cursor locates a point on the waveform. The cursor values can be
read in the descriptor label for the trace. Use the Position data entry
controls at the right side of the dialog to place the cursors precisely. The
Readout icons depict what is being measured for each mode.

Cursors Setup

Quickly Displaying Cursors
Cursors can always be quickly turned on and off from either the
touchscreen display or the Front Panel:

On the display, touch Cursors on the menu bar and make a
selection. Off, Horizontal Abs, Horizontal Rel, Vertical Abs, and
Vertical Rel options are available on the menu.

On the Front Panel, press the Cursor Type button repeatedly to
scroll through all the cursor types available on your instrument.
With the desired cursor type selected, turn the Cursors knobs to
adjust the position of the cursor.
