Acquisition and General Controls
Using the acquisition and general controls, you control whether the
oscilloscope is running or stopped. Other keys allow you to reset the
oscilloscope to its factory default setup, automatically configure the
oscilloscope for the current input signals (Autoscale), or erase the
waveforms from the display.
Horizontal Controls
Using the horizontal controls, you configure the oscilloscope's sweep
speed (seconds per division) and horizontal position of the waveform.
You can also view a magnified section of the waveform using the delayed
sweep window, which uses software to expand part of the acquisition
memory.
Trigger Controls
Using the trigger controls, you set the conditions on which the
oscilloscope will trigger and acquire an input signal. You can set up a
variety of trigger conditions. Edge and glitch triggers can be selected
from the front panel, and the parameters for edge triggering can be set
up here as well. Some glitch trigger parameters (such as glitch width)
and all advanced trigger configurations are set up using the graphical
interface.
Trigger configuration settings you make using the graphical interface are
reflected in the front-panel status indicators, and will remain set unless
you change them (either using the front panel or the graphical interface)
or press the Default Setup key. See "Using the Graphical Interface" on
page 3-19 for information on accessing the graphical interface.
Vertical Controls
Using the vertical controls, you set the vertical scaling (volts per
division), vertical offset, input impedance, and input coupling. You can
also turn the display on or off for a particular channel.
