4.3.4 Interlace Mode
In interlace mode, only one channel is active, and the ADC and storage of two chan-
nels are connected. This connection doubles the sampling rate and the acquisition
memory. A channel is also considered active if it is deactivated but serving as the trig-
ger source.
The interlace mode is activated automatically if the following conditions are met:
●
No logic probe is active
●
No serial or parallel bus is active
●
Logic trigger is not used
