Triggering on Waveforms
TDS 500D, TDS 600B, & TDS 700D User Manual
3–95
When you select the logic class State, the oscilloscope uses channel 4 as a clock
and triggers on a logic circuit made from the rest of the channels (pages 3–86
through 3–88 describe how state triggers work). To use state triggering, do the
following procedures.
Select State Triggering. Press TRIGGER MENU ➞ Type (main) ➞ Logic
(pop-up) ➞ Class (main) ➞ State (pop-up).
Define Inputs. To set the logic state for each of the input channels (Ch1, Ch2, ...):
1. Press TRIGGER MENU ➞ Type (main) ➞ Logic (pop-up) ➞
Class (main) ➞ State (pop-up) ➞ Define Inputs (main).
2. Choose either High (H), Low (L), or Don’t Care (X) (side) for the first three
channels. The choices for Ch4 are rising edge and falling edge.
Set Thresholds. To set the logic threshold for each channel:
1. Press TRIGGER MENU ➞ Type (main) ➞ Logic (pop-up) ➞
Class (main) ➞ State (pop-up) ➞ Set Thresholds (main) ➞ Ch1, Ch2,
Ch3, or Ch4 (side).
2. Use the MAIN TRIGGER LEVEL knob, the general purpose knob, or the
keypad to set each threshold.
Define Logic. To choose the type of logic function you want applied to the input
channels:
Press TRIGGER MENU ➞ Type (main) ➞ Logic (pop-up) ➞ Class (main) ➞
State (pop-up) ➞ Define Logic (main) ➞ AND, OR, NAND, or NOR (side).
Set Trigger When. To choose to trigger when the logic condition is met (Goes
TRUE) or when the logic condition is not met (Goes FALSE):
Press TRIGGER MENU ➞ Type (main) ➞ Logic (pop-up) ➞ Class (main) ➞
State (pop-up) ➞ Trigger When (main) ➞ Goes TRUE or Goes FALSE (side).
