Hint: To move the cursors faster, turn off
ne mode by pushing the Fine button,
if lit, on the front panel between the two
multipurpose knobs.
3. Place o ne cursor at the midpoint of the
rst falling edge. Place the other cursor at
the midpoint of the second falling edge to
measure the signal’s period. The cursor
readout should show a difference between
the cursors of approximately 100 ns.
Hint: To move the cu rsors more slowly, turn
the ne mode back on by pushing the Fine
button, if unlit, on the front panel between
the two multipurpose knobs.
