Maximum – Highest value in the input waveform.

Mean – Average of all data values.

Minimum – Lowest value in the input waveform.

Overshoot Negative – Overshoot following a falling edge.

Overshoot Positive – Overshoot following a rising edge.

Peak to Peak – Difference between the Maximum and Minimum data
values.

Rise (10-90), Rise (20-80), Rise@Level –Transition time on the rising
edge. Three selections are available for the user to determine at which
vertical level the measurement is made.

Top – Value of the uppermost state in a bi-modal waveform

Measurement Gating

Gating is available on each standard parameter to allow you to set a measurement window that the parameter
should be active in. This allows you to eliminate unwanted portions of the acquisition from your measurement.

Select gating from the Measure dialog by
selecting the tab for the appropriate
measurement (P1, P2, etc.) and then setting
the start and stop for the gate. Reference the
oscilloscope’s on-line Help for more
information on how to set gating.

Using Statistics and Graphing

Statistics and Histicons are included with nearly every LeCroy
oscilloscope They allow you to gather numerical and visual
information on the distribution of your various measurements.
You can turn on Statistics and Histicons separately in the Measure
dialog. Simply touch the appropriate box to checkmark it and turn it
ON, or touch it again to turn it OFF.

In addition, some optional LeCroy programs (such as JTA2) add
capability to produce larger histograms, trends, and tracks of your
measurement parameters. If you have this capability, then you can
access it through the Measurement Parameter setup dialog (the Px
tab).
