6.7 Making Cursor Measurements
You can use the cursors to quickly make time and voltage
measurements on a waveform. You can use the cursors to
measure the amplitude and frequency of a FFT waveform.
You can also use the cursors to measure the phase
difference between two signals with the same frequency
when X-Y horizontal mode is selected.
Measure the time and voltage on normal waveform
Perform the following steps to take time and frequency
measurements.
 Press the CURSOR key to display the CURSOR menu.
 Press Mode softkey to select the Manual mode.
 Press Type softkey to select the Time type.
 Press X1--/ X2—softkey or press the entry knob to
select X1 cursor.
 Rotate the entry knob to move the X1 cursor.
 Press X1--/ X2—softkey or press the entry knob to
select X2 cursor.
 Rotate the entry knob to move the X2 cursor.
 ΔX and 1/ΔX are displayed in the softkey area. ΔX is
the time difference between X1 and X2; 1/ΔX is the
frequency between X1 and X2.
