Graticule Measurements
The waveform monitor provides an internal etched graticule for waveform
measurements. The internal graticule scales are on the same plane as the CRT
phosphor to reduce parallax errors. You can adjust the graticule and trace
illumination in the CRT menu for viewing or photographing the display.
Figure 3–25 shows the etched graticule.

Figure 3–25: Waveform measurement graticule
This etched scale facilitates direct Waveform and Parade measurements. The
vertical scale is marked in millivolts (mV) and extends from –300 mV to
+800 mV in 100 mV increments.
There are three dashed lines on the graticule used to measure the color difference
signals, Pb and Pr. The line at 50% amplitude is the center line for the color
difference signal measurements. The lines at 90 mV and 610 mV correspond to
the peak excursions for 75% color difference signals. 100% color difference
signals extend from the baseline (0 V) to 700 mV, centered on the 50% graticule
line.
