A green check mark means the oscilloscope is returning a valid
value.

A crossed-out pulse means the oscilloscope is unable to
determine top and base. However, the measurement could still
be valid.

A downward pointing arrow indicates an underflow condition
(signal below the grid area).

An upward pointing arrow indicates an overflow condition
(signal above the grid area).

An upward-and-downward pointing arrow indicates an
underflow and overflow condition (signal below and above the
grid area).
