Acquisition
Using Autoset
Use Autoset to quickly and automatically set up the instrument (acquisition, horizontal, trigger, and vertical) based on the
characteristics of the input signal. Autoset makes adjustments to the signal such that the waveform d isplays two or three
cycles with the trigger level near the midlevel.
1. Connect the probe, and then select the
input channel. (See page 25, Setting Up
Signal Input.)
2. Push the AUTOSET button to execute
an Autoset.
3. Click Undo if you want to undo the
last Autos
et. Parameters that are not
affected by Autoset retain their settings.

To position the waveform appropriately, Autoset may change the ver tical position. Autoset may also adjust vertical offset.
If you use Autoset when one or more channels a re displayed, the instrument selects the lowest numbered channel for
horizontal scaling and triggering. You can individually control the vertical scaling of each channel.
If you use A utoset when no channels are displayed, the instrument turns on channel one (Ch 1) and scales it.
Close Autoset Undo control window by clicking the X. After Autoset Undo closes, you can still undo the last Autoset by
selecting the Undo Last Autoset command from the Edit menu.
You can stop the Autoset Undo control window from opening automatically by changing the User Preferences in the
Utilities menu.
