Manual Mode
In this mode, a pair of cursors will appear. You can adjust the cursors manually to
measure the X (or Y), X increment (or Y increment) between cursors and the
reciprocal of X increment on the waveform of the selected source (CH1, CH2 or
MATH).
Press Cousor  Mode  “Manual” to turn the manual cursor function on and the
measurement results will be displayed at the upper left corner of the screen in the
following mode.
 The X or Y value at cursor A (CurA): X value takes the trigger position as
reference and Y value takes the channel GND as reference.
 The X or Y value at cursor B (CurB): X value takes the trigger position as
reference and Y value takes the channel GND as reference.
 The horizontal or vertical difference between cursor A and B (△X or △Y).
 The reciprocal of the horizontal difference between cursor A and B (1/△X).
If needed, please refer to the following steps to modify the parameters of manual
cursor measurement.
1. Select Cursor Type
Press Type to select “Time” or “Voltage”. The time cursors are a pair of vertical
dotted lines and are usually used to measure time parameters. The voltage
cursors are a pair of horizontal dotted lines and are usually used to measure
voltage parameters.
2. Select Measurement Source
Press Source to select the waveform of the analog channels (CH1 or CH2) or
math operation results (MATH) for measurement. If “None” is selected, no
cursor will be displayed.
