Cursors that follow the waveform

Question

My Scope is in RUN continuous mode showing a waveform which changes rapidly. Is there a way that the cursors follow the waveform with every acquisition automatically?

Answer

For that you have to use the Cursor type "V-Marker". There are two vertikal Cursors. The waveform is measured at the crossing points.

The measurement values are updated with every acquisition.

The only thing you have to do is to set the position of the two vertical Cursor lines in relation to the trigger point.

Below is a screenshot showing the measurement.
