Points to note when performing cursor measurements
• The cursors and measured values will still be displayed even if a different menu is
selected. However, the cursors cannot then be moved.
• Cursor-measured values will be cleared if the automated measurement function is turned
ON. However, pressing the CURSOR key (when “Cursor” is set to “ON”) will display
the cursor-measured values.
• If the GO/NO-GO “Mode” has been set to “ON” and the “GO/NOGO EXEC” soft key
has been pressed, the cursor measurement function will not operate even if the CURSOR
key is pressed. To operate the cursor measurement function, the GO/NO-GO “Mode”
must be set to “OFF”.
• In case the type selection menu is set to “V-T”, and a measured voltage value is
interpolation data, a “*” will be displayed with the measurement item.
• If measurement is not possible, “- - -” will be displayed.
• Cursor measurement is also possible for expanded waveforms. When switching the
display to show the expanded waveform, the position of the cursor on the screen does not
change. When both the pre-zoom and the expanded waveform are displayed, cursor
measurement will be performed on the expanded waveform.
• There might be cases where the displayed waveform is not in synchronization with the
measurement values. To synchronize, stop data acquistion.
• When using waveform computations, the displayed unit will become “div” for
waveforms obtained by addition/subtraction, and “V2” for waveforms obtained by
multiplication.
• In case engineering units have been set by the linear scaling function, the first three
characters of the unit setting will appear on the screen.
• Time is measured based on the T/div value set for the input signal waveform. Thus, be
careful if the T/div set for a loaded or recalled waveform does not match the T/div for the
input signal waveform.
