2.  Adjust the trigger level 
In slope trigger, you need to set the trigger level upper limit and trigger level 
lower limit which correspond to the trigger labels 
 and   respectively. 
 
  Select the trigger level to be adjusted 
Press Vertical and turn the multi-function knob   to select the desired 
vertical window type (different type of vertical window corresponds to 
different trigger level adjustment mode). You can also press Vertical 
continuously to switch the current vertical window type.  
―  : only adjust the trigger level upper limit and the trigger level 
lower limit remains unchanged.  
― 
: only adjust the trigger level lower limit and the trigger level 
upper limit remains unchanged. 
― 
: adjust the trigger level upper limit and trigger level lower limit 
at the same time; the trigger level difference (namely the difference 
between the trigger level upper limit and trigger level lower limit) 
remains unchanged.  
 
Here, in slope trigger, pressing TRIGGER 
  LEVEL can quicklyswitch the 
current vertical window type. 
 
  Adjust the trigger level

At the same time, the trigger level information and slope information (as 
shown in the figure below; Up Level denotes the trigger level upper limit, 
Low Level denotes the trigger level lower limit and Slew Rate denotes the 
slope) pops up at the lower-left side of the screen in real-time. The trigger 
level lines, trigger level information and slope information at the lower-left 
side of the screen disappear about 2 s later after you stop modifying the 
trigger level. The current trigger level difference is displayed at the 
upper-right side of the screen.
