1. Source:
Trigger can occur from several sources: Input channels (CH1, CH2), AC Line, Ext, Ext/5.
* Input: It is the most commonly used trigger source. The channel will work when selected as a
trigger source whatever displayed or not.
* Ext Trig: The instrument can trigger from a third source while acquiring data from CH1 and CH2. For
example, you might want to trigger from an external clock or with a signal from another part
of the test circuit. The Ext, Ext/ 5 trigger sources use the external trigger signal connected to
the EXT TRIG connector. Ext uses the signal directly; it has a trigger level range of +1.6 V to
-1.6 V. The EXT/ 5 trigger source attenuates the signal by 5X, which extends the trigger level
range to +8 V to -8 V. This allows the oscilloscope to trigger on a larger signal.
