Adding Another Trace

11801C User Manual
Adding another trace to an existing display is easy: press the SELECT
CHANNEL button of the sampling head channel you wish to add.
Step 10: Press the sampling head channel button of the signal from the
INTERNAL CLOCK output.
You should be aware of several important points about this display (see
Figure 2 14).
H Both traces share the same time base, and so both traces display the
same span of time. The horizontal axis labels apply to both traces. This
may not hold true for the vertical axis.
H While the 11801C can display up to 8 traces at once, there is always one
selected trace. The selected appears brighter than other traces. Most
menu selectors, the knobs, the status displays, and autoset all operate
on the selected trace. The 11801C can display four different colors, so
that when up to four traces are displayed, each trace is displayed in a
different color. If greater than four traces are displayed, additional traces
are displayed in the same colors used for the first four traces.
H The graticule axes and the axis labels are the same color as the selected
trace.
H The channel lights on the sampling head are lighted to show that both
channels are being displayed. The light for the selected trace blinks.
