Execute the align phase operation.

Explanation
When executing the align phase operation, the oscilloscope will re-configure the two channels to output
according to the preset frequency and phase.
For two signals of which the frequencies are the same or are multiples, this operation can align their
phases. Assume that Source1 outpts a 1kHz, 5Vpp and 0° sine and Source2 outputs a 1kHz, 5Vpp and
180° sine. Acquire the waveforms of the two channels using the oscilloscope and display the waveforms
stably. The phase deviation of the two waveforms displayed on the oscilloscope is no longer 180°. At this
point, execute the align phase operation; the phase deviation shown on the oscilloscope will restore to
180° without manual adjustment of the start phases of the signal source.
