Working with the DL9000
Measuring a Waveform
This section explains how to use the vertical cursors to measure the voltage and period of the displayed waveform. In
addition to cursor measurement, the DL9000 also has functions such as automatic measurement of waveform
parameters and computation functions that are useful for taking pulse waveform and other types of measurements.
Measuring Voltage with Vertical Cursors
User’s manual section 10.1, “Making Cursor Measurements”
The voltage (Y-axis) and time (X-axis) at the position of the cursor is displayed in the lower part of the waveform
display frame.
2
Open the selection menu, then choose
Vertical.
1
Press the
CURSOR key.
3
Activate the rotary knob on Cursor T1.
4
Turn the rotary knob to move Cursor T1.
5
Move Cursor2 in the same manner.
If you activate the rotary knob on both
Cursor T1 and Cursor T2, you can move
both cursors at the same time.

CURSOR
Cursor Types
Horizontal cursor
Measures the Y-axis value at the cursor position.
Vertical cursor
Measures the X-axis values at the cursor position.
H & V cursor
Measures the X and Y-axis values at the cursor position.
Marker cursor
Measures the X and Y-axis values of the waveform. The marker cursor moves along the waveform.
M1 to M4 (markers 1 through 4) can be set on separate waveforms.
VT cursor
Measures the time from the trigger position to the cursor position, and the Y-axis value at the cursor
position of each waveform.
Serial cursor
Using a specified level as a reference, displays the Y-axis value at the cursor position as either 0 or 1.
You can set the bit rate and the number of displayed bits.
