Timing Display
Timing Display
The Timing display is a Tektronix proprietary display that simpli
fi
es measuring the timing difference between two signals
as the timing is corrected. You can access this display from the
STATUS
button. Using the Timing display enables you
to easily compare and correct the timing between two signals. (See Figure 1.)

Timing Display Elements
Input Signal Indicator:
A single circle representing timing of input signal relative to the reference.
1
Reference Indicator:
A cross-hair indicator centered in the display represents the reference signal.
Vertical Offset:
The timing difference between the reference and input signal.
Horizontal Offset:
The timing difference between the reference and input signal.
Relative to:
Indicates the chosen zero point for the timing display.
2
Link B to Link A:
Indicates the timing reference relationship when the instrument is in simultaneous input mode.
(Available with WFM4000 models only)

More complex timing relationships display multiple circles. See
Timing Displays for Simple Versus Complex Timing
. (See page 40.)

Rear Panel is the default setting, where offset is shown as zero when the input and reference are at the same timing at the rear
panel of the instrument. If you select
Saved Offset
, you can save the timing from one signal, and then display the timing relative
to that saved offset.
