How the instrument captures segments
To Set Up Sequence Mode
1. In the menu bar, touch Timebase, then touch Horizontal Setup... in the drop-down menu.
2. Touch the Smart Memory tab, then touch the Sequence mode button
.
3. Under Sequence Options, touch inside the Num Segments data entry field and enter the
number of segments you want to display, using the pop-up keypad.
4. Touch inside the Timeout data entry field and enter a timeout value.
Note: The timeout period accounts for instances when a Num Segments miscount occurs for some reason and the scope
waits indefinitely for an unforthcoming segment. During that time, no scope functions are accessible. By means of a timeout
value, however, the acquisition will be completed, the waveform displayed, and control of the scope returned to the user
after the timeout has elapsed.
5. Touch the Enable Timeout checkbox.
6. In the menu bar, touch Display, then Display Setup... in the drop-down menu.
7. At the far right of the "Display" dialog, touch inside the Display mode field, and make a
selection from the pop-up menu.
8. Touch inside the Num seg displayed field and enter a value from 1 to 80, using the pop-up
numeric keypad.
