Cursor Seek The cursor marker searches the data points within the cursor region for
the maximum or minimum data value, or calculates the mean of the
region. This key toggles between Max, Min, and Mean. Cursors are avail-
able only for chart displays. Each display (full, top or bottom) has its own
cursor seek type.
When seeking minimum or maximum, the cursor marker is located at the
minimum or maximum data point. This allows peaks and valleys in the
data to be read easily. When seeking mean, the horizontal position of the
cursor marker is the center of the cursor region and the vertical position
is the mean of the data within the region. When a spot cursor region is
used, the cursor marker is confined to a single horizontal screen location.
However, depending upon the horizontal scaling, each horizontal screen
location may represent multiple data points. The cursor marker can still
seek the minimum, maximum, or mean of the data at a single horizontal
screen location.

Cursor Setup The Cursor Setup menu is activated with the [CURSOR SETUP] key in
the Entry area of the keypad. This menu is used to set the cursor modes.
Each display (full, top or bottom) has its own cursor (which is active only
if the display is a chart). The cursor information displayed in this menu is
for the active display.
