Normal Trigger - In this mode waveforms are only sampled when triggering conditions are met. The system stops acquiring data and waits when there is no trigger signal. When a trigger is generated, trigger scan occurs. Single Trigger - In this mode press RUN button once and the oscilloscope will wait for trigger.
Pulse Trigger • Pulse trigger means determining the triggering time based on the pulse width. You can acquire abnormal pulse by setting the pulse width condition. • Press the TRIG MENU button then press F1 to select trigger type and then set the pulse width using the multi-purpose control.

Trigger Release • Trigger release can observe complex waveforms (such as pulse series). • Release time is the time for the oscilloscope to re-enable the trigger. In the period of release and suppression, the oscilloscope will not be triggered. For example, a set of pulse series, which is required to trigger on the first pulse, can set the release time to the pulse width.
FFT spectrum analysis • Using FFT algorithm you can convert the domain signals (YT) into frequency domain signals. • With FFT you can observe the following types of signals: Measure the harmonic wave composition and distortion of the system. Demonstrate the noise characteristics of the DC power. Analyse oscillation.
