Making Cursor Measurements

Note

Cursors allow you to make precise digital measurements on waveforms. This can be done on live waveforms, recorded waveforms, and on saved waveforms.

Even when the key labels are not displayed at the bottom of the screen, you still can use the arrow keys. This allows full control of both cursors while having full screen view.

Using Horizontal Cursors on a Waveform

To use the cursors for a voltage measurement, do the following:

1

 

 

 

 

From scope mode, display the

 

 

 

 

 

cursor key labels.

Press to highlight

 

. Observe

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

that two horizontal cursors are

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

displayed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3 Highlight the upper cursor.

4

 

Move the upper cursor to the

 

 

desired position on the screen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

5 Highlight the lower cursor.

6

 

Move the lower cursor to the

 

 

desired position on the screen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Figure 23. Voltage Measurement with Cursors

The screen shows the voltage difference between the two cursors and the voltage at the cursors. (See Figure 23.)

Use horizontal cursors to measure the amplitude, high or low value, or overshoot of a waveform.
