T h i s technique  c a n be used to measure peak-to-peak voltages. 

Procedure: 

1 . Apply the signal to be measured to the INPUT  j a c k .  S e t the V or Y  M O D E to the chan-

nel to be used. Set the  A C - G N D - D C to  A C , adjusting  V O L T S / D I V and  S W E E P  T I M E / D I V 

for a normal display.  S e t the  V A R I A B L E to  C A L . 

2 . Using the * POSITION control, adjust the  w a v e f o r m position  s u c h that one of the  t w o 

points falls on a  C R T graduation line and that the other is visible on the display  s c r e e n . 

3 . Using the •< • POSITION control, adjust the second point to coincide with the center 

vertical graduation line. 

4 . Measure the vertical distance between the  t w o points and multiply this by the setting 

of the  V O L T S / D I V control. 

If a probe is used, further multiply this by the attenuation ratio. 

Using the formula: 

Volts Peak-to-Peak 

= Vertical distance (div) x  ( V O L T S / D I V setting) x (probe attenuation ratio) 

[EXAMPLE] 

For the example, the  t w o points are separated by  4 . 4 divisions vertically.  S e t the 

V O L T S / D I V setting be  0 . 2 V/div and the probe attenuation be  1 0 : 1 . (See Fig. 10) 

Substituting the given value: 

Voltage between  t w o points =  4 . 4  ( d i v ) x 0 . 2 ( V / d i v ) x 10 =  8 . 8 V
