9 Triggers
 
Pattern Trigger
The Pattern trigger identifies a trigger condition by looking for a specified 
pattern. This pattern is a logical AND combination of the channels. Each 
channel can have a value of 0 (low), 1 (high), or don't care (X). A rising 
or falling edge can be specified for one channel included in the pattern. 
You can also trigger on a hex bus value as described on "Hex Bus Pattern 
Trigger" on page 120.
1 Press the [Trigger] key.
2 In the Trigger Menu, press the Trigger softkey; then, turn the Entry knob 
to select Pattern.
3 For each analog or digital channel you want to include in the desired 
pattern, press the Channel softkey to select the channel.
This is the channel source for the 0, 1, X, or edge condition. As you 
press the Channel softkey (or rotate the Entry knob), the channel you 
select is highlighted in the Pattern = line directly above the softkeys 
and in the upper- right corner of the display next to "Pat".
Adjust the trigger level for the selected analog channel by turning the 
Trigger Level knob. Press the [Digital] key and select Thresholds to set 
the threshold level for digital channels. The value of the trigger level or 
digital threshold is displayed in the upper- right corner of the display.
4 For each channel you select, press the Pattern softkey; then, turn the 
Entry knob to set the condition for that channel in the pattern.
