Setting Up Triggers
Use the trigger controls to set the conditions on which the oscilloscope will trigger
and acquire an input signal. You can set up a variety of trigger conditions. Edge
triggers and the parameters for edge triggering can be set up from the front panel.
Trigger configuration settings you make using the user interface are reflected in
the front panel Trigger status indicators, and will remain set unless you change
them or press [Default Setup].

You can choose any channel or the Aux Trig or Line input as the source for an
edge trigger.
Press [Slope] until the desired slope LED is lit.
You can have an edge trigger on a rising or falling edge, or both.
Press [Sweep] until the desired LED is lit (Trig'd or Auto).
When Trig'd is selected, the oscilloscope must find the trigger before saving and
displaying captured data.
When Auto is selected, if a trigger does not occur within a certain amount of
time, an acquisition is automatically saved and displayed. In Auto trigger mode,
you are able to see your signals while setting up the desired trigger.
Turn the Level knob to adjust the voltage level at which the oscilloscope will
trigger.
