If you would like to pause the display in Roll mode press the [Single] key. To
clear the display and restart an acquisition in Roll mode, press the [Single]
key again.
Use Roll mode on low-frequency waveforms to yield a display much like a
strip chart recorder. It allows the waveform to roll across the display.
XY Time Mode
The XY time mode converts the oscilloscope from a volts-versus-time display to a
volts-versus-volts display using two input channels. Channel 1 is the X-axis input,
channel 2 is the Y-axis input. You can use various transducers so the display could
show strain versus displacement, flow versus pressure, volts versus current, or
voltage versus frequency.
Example This exercise shows a common use of the XY display mode by measuring the
phase difference between two signals of the same frequency with the Lissajous
method.
1 Connect a sine wave signal to channel 1, and a sine wave signal of the same
frequency but out of phase to channel 2.
2 Press the [Auto Scale] key, press the [Horiz] key; then, press Time Mode and select
"XY".
3 Center the signal on the display with the channel 1 and 2 position ( ) knobs.
Use the channel 1 and 2 volts/div knobs and the channel 1 and 2 Fine softkeys
to expand the signal for convenient viewing.
The phase difference angle (θ) can be calculated using the following formula
(assuming the amplitude is the same on both channels):
