Making Measurements

5

•Binary — Binary logic levels are displayed directly above the softkeys for the current X1 and X2 cursor positions for all displayed channels.

Cursor X1 values for analog channels 1 through 4

Cursor X1 values for digital channels D15 Through D0

•Hex — Hexadecimal logic levels are displayed directly above the softkeys for the current X1 and X2 cursor positions for all displayed channels.

In hexadecimal and binary mode, a level can display as 1 (higher than trigger level), 0 (lower than trigger level), indeterminate state ( ), or X (don't care). In binary mode, X is displayed if the channel is turned off. In hex mode, the channel is interpreted as a 0 if turned off.

3Press the Source softkey to select the analog channel or math source on which the Y cursors will indicate measurements.

The source in Normal cursor mode can be any analog channel or math source. If you select binary or hexadecimal mode, the Source softkey is disabled since you are displaying binary or hexadecimal levels for all channels.
