Cursors
Cursors are horizontal and vertical markers that indicate X-axis values and Y-axis
values on a selected waveform source. You can use cursors to make custom
voltage, time, phase, or ratio measurements on oscilloscope signals.
Cursor information is displayed in the right-side information area.
X Cursors
X cursors are vertical dashed lines that adjust horizontally and can be used to
measure time (s), frequency (1/s), phase (°), and ratio (%).
When used with the FFT math function as a source, the X cursors indicate
frequency.
In XY horizontal mode, the X cursors display channel 1 values (Volts or Amps).
Y Cursors
Y cursors are horizontal dashed lines that adjust vertically and can be used to
measure Volts or Amps, dependent on the channel
Probe Units
setting, or they can
measure ratios (%). When math functions are used as a source, the measurement
units correspond to that math function.
The Y cursors adjust vertically and typically indicate values relative to the
waveform's ground point, except math FFT where the values are relative to 0 dB.
In XY horizontal mode, the Y cursors display channel 2 values (Volts or Amps).
