– Inverted—signal polarity is reversed when checked, normal when not checked.
– Coupling AC—check when sampling an AC signal, do not check for DC signals.
– Peak Detect—use when trying to capture a fast event or signal glitch.

on the screen when Auto Find is selected. If run on the same channel as the trigger, the
trigger value is set halfway between the minimum and maximum values of the waveform.
