Press Vert. Unit to select “Source” or “Percent”.
 Source: when this unit is selected, in the measurement results, the units of
AY, BY and BY-AY will be automatically set to the unit of the current source.
 Percent: when this unit is selected, in the measurement results, AY, BY and
BY-AY are in “%”. At this point, AY, BY and BY-AY will change to “0%”,
“100%” and “100%” respectively when you press Set Range, no matter
where cursors A and B are currently located. At the same time, the two
cursor lines (unmovable) appear on the screen as the reference positions.
5. Select Screen Region
 When delayed sweep is enabled (pressing the HORIZONTAL
SCALE
can enable Zoom), the screen is divided into two regions, Main and Zoom.
Press Cursor  Region to select “Main” or “Zoom” and measure the
corresponding value. When “Main” is selected, the cursor values are
displayed in the zoom region. When “Zoom” is selected, the cursors values
are displayed in the main region.
Note:
― When the cursor measurement source is LA and the main time base is
measured (namely the “Main” region is selected), the measurement
results are as shown in the figure below. There are no measurement
values in digital channels and the measurement values are replaced by
“*”.
― When the current measurement source is MATH, you can only measure
the zoom region using the cursor. At this point, “Zoom” is automatically
selected and Region is grayed out.
 When the XY time base mode is selected, the measurement values of the
manual cursor are displayed on the lower-half screen.
6. Measurement Example
Use manual cursor measurement to measure the period (BX-AX=1 ms) of a
square waveform and the result is equal to the period from auto measurement,
as shown in the figure below.
