HOLD Mode Display
Prior to making measurements on the acquired waveform, you may
toggle the HOLD ON/OFF switch to the ON position, holding the
acquired waveform and providing a more stable display for meas-
urement. You can use the following procedure to stop the acquisi-
tion using the HOLD mode:
Step
1.
Acquire a waveform using the Store Mode Display
procedure.
Step 2. Pressing the HOLD button while in RECORD mode,
causes the current display to be stopped immediately,
and the display is not updated.
Step 3. When you press the HOLD button again while in RECORD
mode, you exit the HOLD mode and the acquisition is
restarted.
Step 4. Pressing the HOLD button while in ROLL mode, causes
the current acquisition to be stopped immediately.
Step 5. When you press the HOLD button again while in ROLL
mode, you exit the HOLD mode and the acquisition
continues where it was stopped.
Step 6. "HOLD" appears in the acquisition status field in the crt
readout when the HOLD button is pressed.
