The Auto-Measure Menu
One of the primary features of the oscilloscope is its ability to make
parametric measurements on displayed waveforms. This chapter
provides details on how automatic measurements are performed and
gives some tips on how to improve automatic measurement results.
You access the Auto-Measure menu by touching the menu field (top
row, second from the left), then by selecting Auto-Measure from the
