H Single Sequence. In addition to the Run/Stop Button, which can always stop
an acquisition, the SINGLE button (or Single Sequence control) will
automatically stop acquisition when one complete acquisition sequence is
completed. See step 4, Set the stop mode, on page 3--30, or access the online
help from the Run/Stop control window for more information.
Untriggered Roll. Untriggered roll mode displays newly acquired data points at
the right edge of the waveform record while moving older waveform data points
to the left. To stop acquiring data push RUN/STOP (see Figure 3--6).
Use untriggered roll to continuously observe a slow process, knowing that you
can always see the most recent view of that process. Math and measurements
work after you push STOP.
Untriggered Roll with Single Sequence. Untriggered roll mode with single
sequence displays newly acquired data points at the right edge of the waveform
record while moving older waveform data points to the left. Acquisitions
automatically stop after a complete waveform record is acquired (see
Figure 3--6). Use untriggered roll with single sequence to observe data for later
viewing.

Global Controls. Like the horizontal controls, the acquisition controls apply to all
active channels; for example, channel 1 cannot acquire in Sample mode while
channel 2 acquires in Envelope mode. You cannot stop channel 4 from acquiring
(if turned on) while other channels continue to acquire.
