The stopped display may contain several triggers worth of information, but only the last
trigger acquisition is available for pan and zoom.
The Intensity knob lets you adjust the displayed waveforms to account for various signal

lets you see the maximum amount of noise and infrequently occurring events. Reducing
the intensity can expose more detail in complex signals as shown in the following figures.
The intensity knob does not affect the digital channels.
