Understanding Oscilloscope Functions

Slope and Level

The Slope and Level controls help to define the trigger. The Slope
option (Edge trigger type only) determines whether the oscilloscope
finds the trigger point on the rising or the falling edge of a signal.
The TRIGGER LEVEL knob controls where on the edge the trigger
point occurs.
Trigger level can be
adjusted vertically

Acquiring Signals

When you acquire a signal, the oscilloscope converts it into a digital
form and displays a waveform. The acquisition mode defines how
the signal is digitized and the time base setting affects the time span
and level of detail in the acquisition.

Acquisition Modes

There are three acquisition modes: Sample, Peak Detect, and
Average.
