To Set the High-Level and Low-Level Values
You can specify a signal by setting its amplitude and dc offset values, as 
described previously. Another way to set the limits of a signal is to 
specify its high-level (maximum) and low-level (minimum) values. This 
is typically convenient for digital applications. In the following example, 
let's set the high-level to 1.0 V and the low-level to 0.0 V.
1 Press the "Ampl" softkey to select "Ampl".
2 Press the softkey again to toggle to "HiLevel".
Note that both the Ampl and Offset softkeys toggle together, to HiLevel 
and LoLevel, respectively. 
3 Set the "HiLevel" value.
Using the numeric keypad or the knob, select a value of "1.0 V". (If you 
are using the keypad, you will need to select the unit, "V", to enter the 
value.)
4 Press the "LoLevel" softkey and set the value.
Again, use the numeric keypad or the knob to enter a value of "0.0 V".
Note that these settings (high-level = "1.0 V" and low-level = "0.0 V") are 
equivalent to setting an amplitude of "1.0 Vpp" and an offset of "500 
mVdc".
