4.9. Trigger controls
These elements are located in the bottom side of the main window. They have
effect only if the triggered data acquisition mode is set (see chapter 4.8.)
The first row of the control elements represent Channel A, the second one
channel B trigger condition settings. The left button ("A" and/or "B") activates the
trigger condition for Channel A, or Channel B. The buttons located in the middle
column set the relations to value written in edit boxes located at the right side of the
group. The value written to these boxes represents voltage in volts or milivolts (m).
The button located in the bottom row of the group becomes active if both
trigger conditions for Channel A and Channel B are activated. It defines the influence
of each of the channels on the trigger event. It can be set to one of the following
states:
- "AND" the data acquisition starts if both conditions are met
