The stopped display may contain several triggers worth of
information, but only the last trigger acquisition is available for
pan and zoom.
For more information about Pan and Zoom see
Choosing Auto trigger mode or Normal trigger mode
In Auto trigger mode, the oscilloscope automatically triggers
and captures waveforms when you press
Run
.
If you press
Run
when the oscilloscope is in Normal trigger
mode, a trigger must be detected before an acquisition can
complete.
In many cases, a triggered display is not needed to check signal
levels or activity. For these applications, use Auto trigger mode
(which is the default setting). If you only want to acquire
specific events as specified by the trigger settings, use Normal
trigger mode.
You can select the trigger mode by pressing the
Mode/Coupling
key, then the
Mode
softkey.
For more detailed discussion of Auto trigger mode and Normal
trigger mode, see
“Trigger modes: Normal and Auto”
Using AutoScale
To configure the oscilloscope quickly, press the
AutoScale
key to
display the connected signal(s) that are active.
To undo the effects of AutoScale, press the
Undo AutoScale
softkey before pressing any other key. This is useful if you have
unintentionally pressed the
AutoScale
key or do not like the
settings AutoScale has selected and want to return to your
previous settings.
To make the oscilloscope remain in the acquisition mode you
have chosen, press the
AutoScale Acq Mode
softkey and select
Preserve Acquisition Mode
. Otherwise, the acquisition mode will
default to
Normal
whenever the
AutoScale
key is pressed.
