harmonics.


Magnifying and Positioning and FFT Spectrum

You can magnify and use cursors to take measurements on the FFT

spectrum. The oscilloscope includes an “FFT Zoom” option to magnify

horizontally, press this option button to select “1X”, “2X”, “5X” or “10X”.

Moreover, you also can turn the “Universal” knob to magnify FFT

waveform horizontally in a 1-2-5 step. To magnify vertically; you can turn

the “Volts/div” knob.

Measuring an FFT Spectrum Using Cursors

You can take two measurements on FFT spectrums: magnitude (in dB) and

frequency (in Hz). Magnitude is referenced to 0 dB, where 0 dB equals 1

VRMS. You can use the cursors to take measurements at any zoom factor.

Use horizontal cursors to measure amplitude and vertical cursors to

measure frequency.

If you input a sine signal to channel 1, follow these steps:

1. Measure FFT Amplitude
