Scope Features and Functions
Comments
Normal acquisition mode is for most waveforms
with normal decimating at slower sweep speeds,
no averaging.
Peak Detect acquisition mode is
narrow pulses that occur
slower sweep speeds).
Average acquisition mode is for reducing noise
and increasing resolution (at all sweep speeds
without bandwidth or rise time degradation).
