Taking Cursor
Measurements
You can use the cursors to quickly take time and amplitude measurements on
a waveform.
Measuring Ri
ng Frequency
and Amplitude
To measure the ring frequency at the r ising edge of a signal, follow these steps:
1. Push the Cursor button to see the Cursor Menu.
2. Push Type ► Time.
3. Push Sourc
e ► CH1.
4. Push the Cursor 1 option button.
5. Turn the multipurpose knob to place a cursor on the fi rst peak of the ring.
6. Push the Cursor 2 option button.
7. Turn the multipurpose knob to place a cursor on the second peak of the ring.
You can see the Δ (delta) time and frequency (the measured ring frequency)
in the Cursor Menu.
