Behavior
The cursor units depend on the cursor type. The cursor position readouts appear on the display graticule. When using the IRE
graticule style, amplitude cursor readouts are shown in IRE units.
Cursor position does not change if the cursor source changes or if the waveform is repositioned.
TIP. Use the pop-up keypad or your external keyboard to specify exact numerical cursor coordinates.

Horizontal bar cursors
From the Cursor menu, select Cursor Controls, or press the front panel Cursors button.
To use
1. To use the horizontal bar cursors, click H Bars in one of the cursor control windows, or from the Cursors menu, highlight
Cursor Type, and then select H-bars from the submenu.
2. Use the multipurpose knobs to move the cursors.
3. Use the cursor Source drop-down list boxes to select the waveform you want to measure.
Behavior
Horizontal bar cursors measure vertical parameters (amplitude). Typically the vertical parameters are in volts, but depend on the
Vertical Units selected for the measurement window.
The cursor readouts appear near the bottom of the graticule when a control window is open. When the control windows are
closed, the readouts appear at the bottom of the screen. Each cursor has its own readout with respect to the zero-reference. The
Δ (delta) value shows the difference between the cursor values.
