  AX: the X value at cursor A. X value takes the trigger position as reference. Its 
unit is “s” or “Hz” (when measuring FFT waveform). 
  AY: the Y value at cursor A. Y value takes the channel GND of CH1 as reference. 
Its unit is the same as that of the current signal source. 
  BX: the X value at cursor B. X value takes the trigger position as reference. Its 
unit is “s” or “Hz” (when measuring FFT waveform). 
  BY: the Y value at cursor B. Y value takes the channel GND of CH1 as reference. 
Its unit is the same as that of the current signal source. 
  BX-AX: the horizontal difference between cursors A and B. 
  BY-AY: the vertical difference between cursors A and B. 
  |dX|: when the horizontal unit selects “s”, |dx| represents the time difference 
between cursors A and B; when the horizontal unit selects “Hz”, |dx| represents 
the frequency difference between cursors A and B; 
  1/|dX|: the frequency difference between cursors A and B. 
When the measurement source is set to LA, the measurement results will be 
displayed at the upper-left corner of the screen in the following form. 
  AX: the X value at cursor A. X value takes the trigger position as reference. 
  D15-D0: display the logic level values at cursor A (D15-D0 from left to right) in 
hexadecimal forms. If the digital channel is currently turned off, it will be 
denoted by “*”.  
  BX: the X value at cursor B. X value takes the trigger position as reference.  
  D15-D0: display the logic level values at cursor B (D15-D0 from left to right) in 
hexadecimal forms. If the digital channel is currently turned off, it will be 
denoted by “*”. 
If needed, please refer to the following steps to modify the parameters of manual 
cursor measurement. 
1.  Select Cursor Type 
Press Select to select “ ” or “ ”.
