Introduction to the Horizontal System

Shown as Fig.4-10, there are a button and two knobs in the "HORIZONTAL
CONTROLS". The following practices will gradually direct you to be familiar with
the setting of horizontal time base.
1. Use the horizontal "SEC/DIV" knob to change the horizontal time base setting
and observe the consequent status information change. Rotate the horizontal
"SEC/DIV" knob to change the horizontal time base, and it can be found that the
"Horizontal Time Base" display in the status bar changes accordingly. The
horizontal scanning speed steps from
2 ns up to 100s in the sequence of 1-2-5 -----PDS8102T;
1 ns up to 100s in the sequence of 1-2-5 -----PDS8202T.
2. Use the "HORIZONTAL POSITION" knob to adjust the horizontal position of
the signal in the waveform window. The "HORIZONTAL POSITION" knob is
used to control the triggering displacement of the signal or for other special
applications. If it is applied to triggering the displacement, it can be observed that
the wave form moves horizontally with the knob when you rotate the
"Horizontal Position" knob.
3. With the "HORIZONTAL MENU" button pushed down, you can set and
initiate the Window Expansion.
