X-Y Waveform Display <Section 8.6>
The voltage relationship between signals can be observed by assigning the voltage of
the input signal of the specified channel on the horizontal axis (X-axis) and the voltage of
another input signal (signal that has the display turned ON) on the vertical axis (Y-axis).
Simultaneous observation of X-Y waveforms and normal T-Y waveforms (waveform
display using voltage axis and time axis) is possible.
The channels that are assigned to the X and Y axes depending on the X-axis mode are
as follows:

Using the X-Y waveform display function, you can measure the phase angle between
two sine wave signals. For example, the waveform that appears when two sine
waveforms are shown on the X-Y display is called a Lissajous waveform. From this
waveform, the phase angle can be obtained.
