Chapter 6 Operations and Measurements RIGOL
MSO5000-E User Guide 6-41
Note: When the Timebase Mode is set to "XY", the XY cursor measurement mode is
valid.
Manual Mode
In this mode, you can adjust the cursor manually to measure the value of the
waveforms of the specified source at the current cursor. The measurement results
are displayed at the upper-left corner of the screen. When you change the cursor
position, the measurement results will be changed accordingly.
Press Mode to select "Manual" to enable the manual cursor measurement function.
If the settings for the parameter such as "Select", "Source", "Hori. Unit", and "Vert.
Unit" are different, the measurement results will be different for cursor measurement.
The measurement results are displayed at the upper-left corner of the screen, as
shown in the figure below.
AX: indicates the X value at Cursor A.
AY: indicates the Y value at Cursor A.
BX: indicates the X value at Cursor B.
BY: indicates the Y value at Cursor B.
△X: indicates the horizontal spacing between Cursor A and Cursor B.
△Y: indicates the vertical spacing between Cursor A and Cursor B.
1/△X: indicates the reciprocal of the horizontal spacing between Cursor A and
Cursor B.
1. Select Cursor Type
Press Select continuously to select the cursor type.
X: It is a pair of vertical solid (Cursor A)/dotted (Cursor B) lines, used for
measuring time parameters. The measurement results include AX, BX, △X,
and 1/△X (displayed only when "s" or "Hz" is selected under Hori. Unit).
Y: It is a pair of horizontal solid (Cursor A)/dotted (Cursor B) lines, used for
measuring voltage parameters. The measurement results include AY, BY,
and △Y.
2. Select Measurement Source
Press Source, then rotate the multifunction knob to select the desired
source (CH1 or CH2). Press down the knob to select it. You can also press
Source continuously or enable the touch screen to select it. The available
