Measure  

Four automatic measured values can be detected on each channel simultaneously. 
Only if the waveform channel is in the ON state can the measurement be carried out. 
No automatic measurement can be made in the following situation: 1) on the saved 
waveform. 2) on the mathematical waveform. 3) on the XY format. 4) on the Scan 
format.  

Measure the frequency, the peak-to-peak value of the Channel CH1 and the mean, the 
RMS of the Channel CH2, following below steps:
