You can use the menu bar for most oscilloscope configuration functions.
Context-sensitive menus, which pop up to provide a selection of
commands within particular regions of the user inteface, are available in
the following regions:
• Memory bar
• Waveform display area
• Measurement toolbar
• Horizontal and acquisition controls
You display a context-sensitive menu by clicking the right mouse button
with the pointer in one of these regions. For more information on
context-sensitive menus, see "To select a command from a context-
sensitive menu" on page 3-34.
Vertical Settings and Controls
The top of the waveform display area includes the vertical settings and
controls. In full-screen mode, only channels that are turned on are
shown, with the corresponding vertical scaling settings in volts per
division. When the graphical interface is enabled, all channels are shown.
Each has a checkbox allowing you to turn that channel on or off, and a
set of controls allowing you to change the vertical scaling. Clicking
directly on the vertical scaling value displays a pop-up numeric keypad
allowing you to set a precise vertical scale.
Horizontal and Trigger Toolbar
At the bottom of the waveform display area is the horizontal and trigger
toolbar. This includes the run/stop controls, the horizontal controls, and
the trigger controls.
See figure 3-25. At the left side of the bar are three
Run/Stop Controls
icons:
• The leftmost is a blue-green octagon. Clicking on this starts an
acquisition. (Same as pressing the Run key on the front panel.)
• The middle is a red octagon. Clicking on this stops acquisition. (Same
as pressing the Stop key on the front panel.)
• The rightmost is a small windshield wiper. Clicking on this clears
acquired waveform data from the display. (Same as pressing the Clear
Display key on the front panel.)
