Location:

Add Measurement or Edit Measurement dialog > Advanced

Purpose:

adjusts parameters of certain measurements such as filtering and

spectrum analysis

Threshold

Some measurements, such as Rise Time and Fall Time,

can be made using different thresholds. Select the

appropriate ones here. When comparing rise and fall times

with manufacturers' specifications, it is important to use

the same thresholds for all measurements.

Spectrum Span

When measuring peak-related parameters such as

'Frequency at Peak' in a spectrum view , PicoScope

can search for a peak near to the specified ruler

location. This option tells PicoScope how many frequency

bins to search. The default is 5, which tell PicoScope to

search from 2 bins below to 2 bins above the ruler

frequency, giving a total range of 5 bins including the ruler

frequency.
