Trigger level
Sets the voltage level for the trigger condition. You can also drag the trigger level
marker on the display (TA or TB on the right edge of the display). The range of the trig-
ger level is limited in a way so that always a hysteresis for stable trigger conditions is
available.

6.3.4 Width
Access: "Menu" > "Trigger" > "Setup" tab > "Type = Width"
The width trigger compares the pulse width (duration of a pulse) with a given time limit.
It detects pulses with an exact pulse width, pulses shorter or longer than a given time,
and pulses inside or outside the allowable time range. The pulse width is measured at
the trigger level.
Using the width trigger, you can define the pulse width more precisely than with the
glitch trigger
. However, using the range settings "Shorter" and "Longer", you can also
trigger on glitches.
The width trigger can only analyze either positive or negative polarity, but searching
for a width is also possible for both polarities at the same time ("Either").
Polarity
Indicates the polarity of a pulse, that is the direction of the first pulse slope.
"Positive"
Triggers on positive going pulses.
