To use LIN triggering
LIN (Local Interconnect Network) trigger setup consists of connecting the 
oscilloscope to a serial LIN signal.
The LIN trigger will trigger on the rising edge at the Sync Break exit of the LIN 
single-wire bus signal that marks the beginning of the message frame. A LIN 
signal message frame is shown below:
1Press the More key in the Trigger section of the front panel, rotate the 
Entry knob until 
LIN is displayed in the Trigger softkey, then press the 
Settings softkey to display LIN trigger menu.
2Press the 
Baud softkey to set the LIN signal baud rate to match your LIN 
bus signal.
The LIN baud rate can be set to 2400 b/s, 9600 b/s, or 19.2 kb/s. The default 
baud rate is 2400 b/s.
