BASICS
Measurements are waveform parameters that can be expressed as numerical values, such as amplitude or frequency. You can measure up-to-twelve
parameters on one or more traces and view the active readout in a table below the grid. Statistics can be added to the readout, along with histicons, a
miniature histogram of the statistical distribution. You can also gate measurements to limit them to a specific portion of the trace, or plot a histogram,
trend or track of the measurement over time.
