"Masks" > "Mask Definition" dialog box. You can also use existing masks in the zone
trigger
. The zone trigger and usual mask tests run in parallel.
If you switch of
f a mask test that is used by the zone trigger, the mask is removed from
the zone trigger expression automatically.
All zones and masks that are included in the zone trigger expression are indicated with
yellow color.
Figure 6-4: Indication of trigger zones
MT1 = Mask is included in zone trigger. Trigger if signal hits the mask (must intersect).
MT2 = Mask is not included in zone trigger.
Zone1 = Zone is included in zone trigger. Trigger if signal does not hit the zone (must not intersect).
If average or envelope acquisition is enabled, only triggered waveforms are used for
envelope and average calculation on channel and math waveforms.
6.9.2 Creating trigger zones
You can define the trigger zones on the display
, or use existing mask definitions as trig-
ger zones.
Define trigger zones
1. Tap the "Zone trigger" icon on the toolbar.
2. In the signal bar, select if the signal must violate the zone to cause a trigger (Must
Intersect), or vice versa (Must Not Intersect).
3. Tap the corner points of the zone on the screen.
4. If all points are set, tap "Finish zone" in the signal bar.
"Zone1" is shown in the expression field.
5. If you want to define another zone, select the logic combination of the zones AND
(both zones) or OR (either zone).
6. To create the second zone, repeat steps 3 and 4.
7. To define more zones, repeat steps 5 and 6.
