Basic Measurements

Basic Measurements contains 1740A/1750A--Series graticule
descriptions, followed by specific measurement procedures.

This monitor uses an internal graticule, which combines wa-
veform and vector markings. The internal graticule scales
are on the same plane as the CRT phosphor, eliminating par-
allax errors. Graticule illumination can be adjusted through
the

CRT

menu (page 3-24) to provide optimum brightness for

viewing or photographing displays.

Waveform Graticule

There are three versions of the waveform graticule, illus-
trated in Figure 4-1, Figure 4-2, and Figure 4-3:

H NTSC composite video graticule (1740A and 1750A

only)

H CCIR composite graticule (1741A and 1751A only)
H Dual standard graticule (1745A and 1755A only)

Horizontal Scale

The 0 IRE (0.3V) graticule line is divided into 12 major divi-
sions. Each division represents a unit of time determined by
the

SWEEP

and

MAG

settings. Line sweep rates are as fol-

lows:
