select which occurrence of Edge 2 to trigger on.
a Make sure Nth Edge 2 or Nth Edge 2 (no re-find) is selected in the Trigger:
softkey.
When Nth Edge 2 is selected, if the Find event occurs again before the
Count (N) event is satisfied, Count (N) will be reset to zero.
When Nth Edge 2 (no re-find) is selected, if the Find event occurs again
before the Count (N) event is satisfied, the Count (N) is not reset to
zero.
b Press the Ter m softkey and select Count (N).

edges to wait before triggering.
N can be set from 1 to 10,000.
If the term(s) used in the “Trigger on:” Sequence Stage condition are set to “don’t care,”
the oscilloscope will not trigger. At least one term in the stage must be set to a value other
than X (don’t care).
