The cursor measurement has three modes: Manual, Track and Auto Measure.
1. Manual Mode:
In this mode, the screen displays two parallel cursors. Move the cursors to make
custom voltage or time measurements of the signal. The values are displayed on the
boxes below the menu. Before using cursors, make sure to set the Signal Source as
the channel for measuring.
2. Track Mode:
In this mode, the screen displays two cross cursors. The cross cursor sets the
position on the waveform automatically. Adjust cursor’s horizontal position on the
waveform by rotating the multifunctional knob ( ). The oscilloscope displays the
values of the coordinates on the boxes below the menu.
3. Auto Mode:
This mode will take effect with Automatic Measurements. The instruments will
display cursors while measuring parameters automatically. These cursors
demonstrate the electrical meanings of these measurements.
NOTE: The Auto Measure mode for Cursor measuring will take no effect without
automatic measurements.
