Lately I seem to struggle to express my thoughts or questions clearly.
That, or you guys are all very sloppy readers.
In manual mode, you place the cursors where you want them and read the result.
Got that. Let's call these "
manual cursors". That's what the Rigol dialog seems to call them, and how 2N3055 called them too. OK?
In track mode, you can, for example, track X, i.e. move and Y is guided and displays the corresponding position value, or track Y and X is guided and displays the corresponding value.
As well as the combination of X and Y.
Yep. That's what I tried to describe in my earlier post, and what everybody seems to agree are called "
tracking cursors". (Except for Tautech, who used that term for something else, namely the type of cursors mentioned down at the end of this post.)
At work, I like to use a previously set measurement window, which I can then move horizontally, e.g. for the evaluation of a load jump.
I have not yet found this gate function in the rigol, which is available in lecroy and siglent separately identified (measurement gate: Normal across the entire width of the screen as the default setting, but you can also set the window manually).
"
Gated measurements", at least in Keysight terminology, right? I don't think the Rigol DHO has these.
So, now for my question again:
How does "the industry" call those lines which indicate where an
automatic measurement, like a risetime, period or such, is being taken by the scope? "Indicators" in Rigol terminology. Are these "
measurement cursors" elsewhere? Or which other term is the "industry standard" for these?
