Chapter 5 To Trigger the Oscilloscope    RIGOL 
MSO7000/DS7000 User Guide  5-19 
Note: Only one edge (rising or falling edge) can be specified in the pattern. If one 
edge item is currently defined and then another edge item is defined in another 
channel in the pattern, then a prompt message "Invalid input" is displayed. Then the 
latter defined edge item will be replaced by X. 
 
All Bits: 
Press All Bits to set the patterns of all channels to the currently selected pattern. 
 
Trigger Mode: 
In the trigger control area (Trigger) on the front panel, press Mode to quickly switch 
the current trigger mode. For details, refer to descriptions in "Trigger Mode". 
 
Trigger Parameter Setting: 
Set the trigger parameters (trigger holdoff and noise rejection) under  this  trigger 
type.  For  details,  refer  to  descriptions  in  "Trigger  Holdoff"  and  "Noise 
Rejection". 
 
Trigger LEVEL/Threshold Level: 
Rotate the Trigger    LEVEL knob to adjust the trigger level/threshold level. Refer 
to  "Trigger  LEVEL/Threshold  Level".  The  current  trigger  level/threshold  level 
value is displayed at the upper-right corner of the screen.   
 
 
Duration Trigger 
 
In duration trigger, the instrument identifies a trigger condition by searching for the 
duration of a specified pattern. This pattern is a logical "AND" combination of the 
channels. Each channel can be set to H (high), L (low), or X (don't care). When the 
duration (△T) of this pattern meets the preset time, the oscilloscope initiates a 
trigger, as shown in the figure below.
