Measure Chan Delay
.
The channel-to-channel delay time appears on the message line of the display.
You may repeat the above steps as desired to measure the delay time
between different sets of input channels. The three most recent single- or
dual-channel measurements (of any kind) will be shown on the message line
of the display.
To calculate the delay time, the analyzer measures the time between the first
transition of the selected type (rising or falling) on the start channel and the
first transition of the selected type (rising or falling) on the end channel.
When looking for the transition on the start channel, the analyzer begins at
the left side of the visible display. So, if the correct transition is found first on
the start channel, the result will be positive; otherwise, it will be negative. In
delayed mode, the analyzer uses the part of the waveform shown by the
delayed sweep.
