Command groups
Cursor command group
Use the commands in the Cursor Command Group to control the cursor display
and readout. You can use these commands to control the setups for each cursor,
such as waveform source, and cursor position.
You can also use the commands to select one of the following cursor functions:
Off.
Shuts off the display of all cursors.
Vertical bars.
Displays vertical bar cursors, which provide traditional
horizontal unit readouts for Cursor 1 (bar1), Cursor 2 (bar2), the delta
between them, and 1/delta (results in frequency when the horizontal unit is
time). Vertical bars are another name for vertical screen cursors.
Horizontal bars.
Displays horizontal bar cursors, which provide traditional
vertical unit readouts for Cursor 1 (bar1), Cursor 2 (bar2), and the delta
between them. Horizontal bars are another name for horizontal screen cursors.
Waveform cursors.
Consists of two cursors you can independently assign to a
waveform. Waveform cursors enable you to conveniently measure waveform
amplitude and time at speci
fi
c points on the waveform. In XY or XYZ format,
waveform cursors indicate the amplitude position of an XY pair (Ch1 vs Ch2
voltage, where Ch1 is the X axis and Ch2 is the Y axis) relative to the trigger.
Screen cursors.
Consist of two pairs of horizontal and vertical bar cursors.
You can use these cursors to indicate an arbitrary position within the
waveform display area. Screen cursors are basically just turning on horizontal
bars and vertical bars at the same time. These cursors have no association
with any waveform, except that they inherit the color of the waveform they
are assigned to.
NOTE.
Cursor commands are available once a view has been added.

fi
ed cursor in the speci
fi
ed
view.
