3. Set u p the instrument: Push the front-panel Autoset button.
4. Set the Vertic al Sca le to 200 mV per division.
5. Verify that the main trigger system operates: Confirm that the following
statements are true.
The trigger level readout for the A (main) trigger system changes with the
trigger-Level knob.
The trigger-Level knob can trigger and untrigger the square-wave signal
as you rotate the knob. (Leave the signal untriggered).
Pushing the front-panel trigger Level knob sets the trigger level to the
50% amplitude point of the signal and triggers the signal that you just left
untriggered. (Leave the signal triggered.)
