Example 5: Making Cursor Measurements
There are 20 most desired parameters that could be automatically measured with
the oscilloscope. These parameters can also be measured using cursors. You could
use the cursors to quickly make time and voltage measurements on a waveform.
Measuring Ring Frequency
To measure the ring frequency at the rising edge of a signal, do these steps:
1. Press CURSOR
key to see the Cursor menu.
2. Press Mode to set
Manual
mode.
3. Press Type to select
Time
measurement
4. Rotate vertical POSITION
knob to place cursor A on the first peak of the ring.
5. Rotate horizontal POSITION
knob to place cursor B on the second peak of the
ring.
You can see the delta time and frequency (the measured ring frequency) in the
Cursor menu.
