Oscilloscope Reference Set the offset
Behavior
The tab selector on the side of the Vertical Setup control window identifies the channel waveform source.
The Display button, the label, and units apply only to the selected waveform.
Each waveform (channel, math, or reference) has its own Display button, label, and units. If you do not
enter a label for the selected waveform, the label will be left blank. You can position the label anywhere
on the graticule by clicking and dragging it to the desired location.
Any displayed channel waveform can be turned off without impacting any math functions, measurements,
or histograms done on that waveform. You may want to turn some waveform displays off to make the
remain
ing waveforms easier to view and analyze.
TIP. Use the dedicated front-panel Ch <1 - 4> buttons to turn the channel waveforms on or off.
