4 - 48 HOW TO USE THE INSTRUMENT
CURSORS READOUT T-RATIO/PHASE
First, the reference distance between the two cursors is set. This then is set to
100 % (360°) by pressing the T=100 % (360°) softkey. Changing the distance
between the cursors now results in a % (°) reading of the reference.
-Press the softkey next to T until T-ratio (phase) is intensified.
- Set the time cursors to be exactly one signal period apart.
-Press the softkey next to T=100% (360°).
In the cursor readout line of the screen, the value for T is now ’T=100%’
(T=360°)
Observe that the 100% (360°) reference does not change when the TRACK
control is turned.
- Adjust the cursors to a distance of half a signal period.
Now the T in the readout area will read ’T= 50%’ (T=180°)
This is the way to use the cursors for duty cycle measurements.
