When using a sampler element, how do I convert the displayed signal from the oscilloscope to a voltage?

 

If you are using an oscilloscope, make sure the scope channel is set to 50 ohms termination.  The scope will be reading voltage so use (E^2/R) where E is the voltage reading and R = 50Ω.  Then add 40dB offset.
