Run/Stop Options
Autoscale Run
Autoscale Run
You can use the autoscale feature to cause the oscilloscope to run. You may
want to use this method when you have changed one or more of the signal
input parameters and want to get back to a basic screen presentation of your
waveform. Touch the Autoscale field on the screen, then select Continue
from the pop-up menu. When autoscaling is complete, the oscilloscope
automatically starts running. It will run in the mode (single or repetitive)
that was last selected using the Run field menu options. If no run mode is
selected prior to selecting autoscale, the run mode defaults to single mode.
Run Field
When the green Run field is displayed, the oscilloscope is stopped. Touching
the Run field, then removing your finger from the screen, starts the
oscilloscope running. The oscilloscope runs using the parameters that are
currently set. Additionally, it runs in the mode (single or repetitive) that was
last selected. If no run mode is selected prior to selecting a run, the run
mode defaults to single mode.
When you touch and hold your finger on the Run field, a pop-up menu
appears. The pop-up contains the selections Single, Repetitive, and Cancel.
To select one of the options, slide your finger down the screen until it is over
the option you want to select, then remove your finger from the screen.
These options are described in the following paragraphs.
Single Mode Option
When the system is turned on, the oscilloscope defaults to the Single mode.
Single-mode acquisition fills acquisition memory once with 32768 samples of
the input waveform, automatically stops running, then displays the contents
of acquisition memory. Each 32768-sample waveform record is acquired in a
single acquisition.
