Getting Started Manual
Instrument
The Instrument setup button shows a configuration screen where you can configure how the digital instrument
samples data ‐ including the half/full channel mode selection and setting threshold levels. Changes made on the
Instrument setup screen take effect on the next acquisition.
Note: If you select a different channel mode, the information shown on the left of this setup display is updated
to match acquisition details for your choice.
Trigger
The Trigger setup button opens a pop‐up used for configuring trigger conditions for the digital device. The
trigger pop‐up has four tabs for different trigger categories.
Note: It's important to note that the trigger logic always runs at a rate of 500 MHz under all modes, regardless
of the selected Sample Rate. This allows you to continue triggering on fast events even when lowering the
Sample Rate to obtain a longer timeframe of data. However, this may result in trigger events that cannot be
seen in the slower sampled acquisition data when presented on the waveform display area.

only, B only, A and B, A or B, A then B, and B then A.
