HDO9000 High Definition Oscilloscopes Operator's Manual
While many common operations can also be performed from the front panel or launched via the
descriptor boxes, the menu bar is the best way to access dialogs for Save/Recall (File) functions,
Display functions, Status, LabNotebook, Pass/Fail setup, and Utilities/Preferences setup.
You will see a Q-Scape control
added to the menu bar when the Q-Scape option is
installed. This allows you to choose different tabbed display configurations. See Display.
If an action can be "undone", a small Undo button appears at the far right of the menu bar. Click this
to return to the previous display.
Grid Area
The grid area displays the waveform traces. Every grid is 8 Vertical divisions representing the full
number of Vertical levels possible at the current resolution and 10 Horizontal divisions. The value
represented by Vertical and Horizontal divisions depends on the Vertical and Horizontal scale of the
traces that appear on the grid.
Multi-Grid Display
The grid area can be divided into multiple grids showing different types and numbers of traces (by
default, it will divide automatically as needed up to 16 times). Regardless of the number and
orientation of grids, every grid always represents the same number of Vertical levels. Therefore,
absolute Vertical measurement precision is maintained.

Q-Scape Tabs
On instruments with the Q-Scape option installed, Tabs 1-4 appear along the top of the grid area. Each
tab is a distinct multi-grid display. See
Display
for more information about using Q-Scape.
