Part II: Getting Started 2.3 Views PropScope uses Views to Analyze Signals Explore the views by clicking on the tabs. Here's a brief summary of the most commonly used views. Oscilloscope Graphs the analog measurement of up to 2 channels versus time. -
Page 10: Hybrid Views
PropScope 2.4 Hybrid Views These hybrid views combine multiple graph elements in one view. Typically, you'll start by setting the configuration (time scale, triggers, resolution) in the pure views and then switch to an advanced view to analyze your data all in one view. All changes you make in a view will carry across to other views. -

I clicked on the left part of the graph to set a trigger to stabilize the signal- notice the yellow marker. Since the PropScope takes samples before and after the trigger, I can look at any part of the signal surrounding the trigger condition using the top scroller. I've manually positioned both horizontal and vertical cursors to let me verify the automatic measurements taken by PropScope. -

(like in the graph below), switch to "Pattern" mode. Here, you can select between "rise, fall, 1, 0, none" trigger conditions for every bit. The PropScope can measure before and after the trigger condition, so use the top scroller or drag the traces left/right to view the part of the signal you're interested in. -
Page 16: Generate Signals
2.5v and amplitude 5v will go from 0 to 5v. The PropScope is capable of generating signals either in the -1.5 to 1.5v range or 0 to 5v range. -

The Trigger Event is defined by it's edge, level, and source. PropScope can look for either "rising" or "falling" edges- where the signal is either increasing or decreasing through a set level. -
