X-Y Horizontal Mode
X-Y mode changes the display from a volts-versus-time
display to a volts-versus-volts display. The time base is
turned off. CH1 amplitude is plotted on the X axis and CH2
amplitude is plotted on the Y axis.
You can use X-Y mode to compare frequency and phase
relationships between two signals. X-Y mode can also be
used with transducers to display strain versus displacement,
flow versus pressure, voltage versus current, or voltage
versus frequency.
In order to get a better view of the waveform, proper vertical
scale should be selected before selecting the X-Y mode.
Use X-Y mode to compare two signals with the same
frequency and different phase. Connect the two signal to CH1
and CH2 respectively. Press horizontal MENU key and then
X-Y softkey to select X-Y mode.
