With  Video  highlighted,  an  NTSC,  PAL  or  SECAM 
standard  video  signal  will  be  triggered.  The  trigger 
coupling is preset to AC.   
Select the input source as the trigger signal. Ext/5 use 
the  signal applied  to  the  EXT  TRIG connector  as  the 
source. 
Normal:  Triggers  on  the  negative  edge  of  the  sync 
pulse. 
Inverted:  Triggers  on  the  positive  edge  of  the  sync 
pulse.

Note: When you choose Normal Polarity, the trigger always occurs on negative-going sync 
pulses. If the video signal contains positive-going sync pulses, use the Inverted Polarity 
option. 
Pulse Width Trigger 
You can use it to trigger on aberrant pulses. 
With Pulse highlighted, the trigger occurs on pulses that 
meet the trigger condition (defined by the Source, When 
and Set Pulse Width options). 
Select the input source as the trigger signal. 
EXT/5: Does not display the trigger signal and allows a 
trigger level range of +6V to -6V. 
Select the type of trigger. The Normal mode is best for 
most pulse width trigger applications.

Select the components of the trigger signal applied to the 
trigger circuit. 
Select the trigger condition. 
With Set Pulse Width highlighted, set the pulse width. 
 
Trigger When: The pulse width of the source must be ≥5ns so that the oscilloscope can detect the 
pulse.
