Measuring Pulse Width
You are analyzing a pulse waveform, and you want to know the
width of the pulse. To measure the width of a pulse using the time
cursors, follow these steps:
1. Push the CURSOR button to see the Cursor Menu.
LEDs light under the VERTICAL POSITION knobs to indicate
the alternative CURSOR1 and CURSOR2 functions.
2. Push the Source option button and select CH1.
3. Push the Type option button and select Time.
4. Turn the CURSOR 1 knob to place a cursor on the rising edge of
the pulse.
5. Turn the CURSOR 2 knob to place the remaining cursor on the
falling edge of the pulse.
You can see the following measurements in the Cursor Menu:
H The time at Cursor 1, relative to the trigger.
