(4) Move the cursor to the "Level" parameter next to the "Mode" parameter and then press the ENTER key. (5) The input box shown in the following screen is displayed. Select "20". Use the keys to move to the cursor to the second digit from the right, and the keys to change the value.
Span, Position and Trace Functions to Adjust the Waveform Display These functions enable to make adjustments in order to view individual channels more easily, and to delete waveforms that is not required to view in display. Points to The span, position and trace operations can be performed while the GL820 Remember is in the Free Running status, while it capturing data, and while it is replaying data.
