  • Page 63: Peak Detect

    SIGLENT Peak Detect In this mode, the oscilloscope acquires the maximum and minimum values of the signal within the sample interval to get the envelope of the signal or the narrow pulse of the signal that might be lost. In this mode, signal confusion can be prevented but the noise displayed would be larger.

  • Page 64: Average

    SIGLENT Average In this mode, the oscilloscope averages the waveforms from multiple samples to reduce the random noise of the input signal and improve the vertical resolution. The greater the number of averages is, the lower the noise will be and the higher the vertical resolution will be but the slower the response of the displayed waveform to the waveform changes will The available range of averages is from 4 to 1024 and the default is 16.

  • Page 65: High Resolution

    SIGLENT Figure 18 With Random Noise, Average Mode High Resolution This mode uses a kind of ultra-sample technique to average the neighboring points of the sample waveform to reduce the random noise on the input signal and generate much smoother waveforms on the screen. This is generally used when the sample rate of the digital converter is higher than the storage rate of the acquisition memory.

  • Page 66: Change The Horizontal Format

    SIGLENT Change the Horizontal Format Press the Acquire button on the front panel; then press the XY soft key to set the XY(On) or YT(Off) mode. The default setup is YT(Off).

In the Normal time mode, signal events occurring before the trigger are plotted to the left of the trigger point and signal events after the trigger plotted to the right of the trigger point.

  • Page 67: Use Sequence Mode

    SIGLENT Use Sequence Mode Sequence is also a kind of acquisition mode, which does not display waveform during sampling process. It improves the waveform capture rate, and the maximal capture rate is more than 300,000 wfs/s. So it can capture the small probability event effectively.

    SIGLENT Trigger Holdoff Trigger holdoff can be used to stably trigger the complex waveforms (such as pulse series). Holdoff time is the amount of time that the oscilloscope waits before re-arming the trigger circuitry. The oscilloscope will not trigger until the holdoff time expires.

  • Page 76: Noise Rejection

    SIGLENT Noise Rejection Noise Reject adds additional hysteresis to the trigger circuitry. By increasing the trigger hysteresis band, you reduce the possibility of triggering on noise. However, this also decreases the trigger sensitivity so that a slightly larger signal is required to trigger the oscilloscope.

  • Page 77: Figure 22 Turn On The Noise Reject

    SIGLENT Figure 22 Turn on the Noise Reject If the signal you are probing is noisy, you can set up the oscilloscope to reduce the noise in the trigger path and on the displayed waveform. First, stabilize the displayed waveform by removing the noise from the trigger path.
