Delayed Scan: 
The Delayed Scan is a magnified portion of the main waveform window. Use Delayed 
Scan to locate and horizontally expand part of the main waveform window for a more 
detailed (higher horizontal resolution) analysis of signal. The Delayed Scan time base 
setting cannot be set slower than the Main time base setting. 
 
 
 
 
Figure 2-33 Delayed Scan windows 
The following steps show you how to use Delayed Scan. 
1. Connect a signal to the oscilloscope and obtain a stable display. 
2. Press horizontal MENU→Delayed→ON or press horizontal   knob to 
enter Delayed Scan mode. 
The screen splits into two parts. The upper half displays the main waveform window 
and the lower half displays an expanded portion of the main waveform window. This 
expanded portion of the main window is called the Delayed Scan window. Two blocks 
shaded at the upper half; the un-shaded portion is expanded in the lower half. The 
horizontal 
 and    knobs control the size and position of the 
Delayed Scan. The value at bottom of the screen is the main time base and the value 
on the center bottom means the Delayed Scan time.
