The Scope Multimeter Preferences dialog box opens
2. Tap Trigger to open the Trigger Setup dialog box (Figure 9-11).
3. Use the dialog box controls to establish the position for triggering.
4. Select OK to close the dialog box.
5. Select Back twice to close the Scope Multimeter Preferences dialog box.
