CHANNELS, Coupling & Probes
FIND — automatically adjusts offset and volts/div to match the active
channel’s input signal.
VOLTS/DIV — selects the vertical sensitivity factor either in a 1–2–5 sequence
or continuously (see VAR, below). The effect of gain changes on the
acquisition offset can be chosen from the “SPECIAL MODES”
menu.
VAR — allows the user to determine whether the VOLTS/DIV knob will
modify the vertical sensitivity in a continuous manner or in discrete
1–2–5 steps.
The format of the vertical sensitivity in the Acquisition Summary
field (bottom left of screen) shows whether the VOLTS/DIV knob is
operating in continuous or stepping mode.
COUPLING — menu-entry button that accesses the “Coupling” menus (see next
section).
