If a trace is repositioned over an existing trace the indicator at the left edge of the trace
will change from D
designation (where nn is a one or two digit channel number from 0
nn
to 15) to D * . The " * " indicates that two channels are overlaid.
You can rotate the knob to select an overlaid channel, then press the knob to position it
just as you would any other channel.
For more information on digital channels see
Chapter
13, "Digital Channels," starting on
page 371.
14. [Utility] Key
Press this key to access the Utility Menu, which lets you configure
the oscilloscope's I/O settings, use the file explorer, set preferences, access the service
menu, and choose other options.
15. File Keys
Press the [Save/Recall] key to save or recall a waveform or setup, or to
access the Default Setup function, which restores many settings to their factory
configuration (details on
"To restore the oscilloscope to its default configuration"
on
page 392). The [Print] key opens the Print Configuration Menu so you can print the
displayed waveforms. See
"Saving Oscilloscope Data"
on page 247 and
"Printing the
Oscilloscope's Display"
on page 244.
16. Run Controls
Press [Run/Stop] to make the oscilloscope begin looking for a
trigger. The [Run/Stop] key will illuminate in green. If the trigger mode is set to
"Normal," the display will not update until a trigger is found. If the trigger mode is set to
"Auto," the oscilloscope looks for a trigger, and if none is found, it will automatically
trigger, and the display will immediately show the input signals. In this case, the Auto
indicator at the top of the display will change to Auto? and the background will flash,
indicating that the oscilloscope is forcing triggers.
Press [Run/Stop] again to stop acquiring data. The key will illuminate in red. Now you
can pan across and zoom-in on the acquired data.
Press [Single] to make a single acquisition of data. The key will illuminate in yellow until
the oscilloscope triggers. See
"To start and stop an acquisition"
on page 262.
17. Trigger Controls
These controls determine how the oscilloscope triggers to
capture data. See
Chapter
4, "Triggering," starting on page 81.
