3 Press the Trigger Type softkey; then, turn the Entry knob to select the serial slot 
(Serial 1) on which the I

C signals are being decoded.
4 Press the Trigger: softkey; then, turn the Entry knob to select 
the trigger condition:
• Start Condition— The oscilloscope triggers when SDA data 
transitions from high to low while the SCL clock is high. 
For triggering purposes (including frame triggers), a 
restart is treated as a start condition.
• Stop Condition— The oscilloscope triggers when data (SDA) 
transitions from low to high while the clock (SCL) is high.
• Missing Acknowledge— The oscilloscope triggers when SDA 
data is high during any Ack SCL clock bit.
• Address with no Ack— The oscilloscope triggers when the acknowledge of the 
selected address field is false. The R/W bit is ignored.
• Restart— The oscilloscope triggers when another start condition occurs 
before a stop condition.
• EEPROM Data Read— The trigger looks for EEPROM control byte value 1010xxx 
on the SDA line, followed by a Read bit and an Ack bit. It then looks for the 
data value and qualifier set by the Data softkey and the Data is softkey. When 
this event occurs, the oscilloscope will trigger on the clock edge for the Ack 
bit after the data byte. This data byte does not need to occur directly after 
the control byte.
