To change the graticule:
Press DISPLAY ➞ Settings (main) ➞ Display (pop-up) ➞ Graticule (main) ➞
Full, Grid, Cross Hair, Frame, NTSC or PAL (side).
Full provides a grid, cross hairs and a frame.
Grid displays a frame and a grid.
Cross Hair provides cross hairs, and a frame.
Frame displays just a frame.
NTSC provides a grid useful for measuring NTSC-class waveforms.
PA L provides a grid useful for measuring PAL-class waveforms.
NOTE. Selecting either NTSC or PAL graticules automatically changes the
vertical scale, position settings, coupling, and sets to zero any vertical offset of
any channel displayed. These settings are not restored after switching to other
graticule types. Therefore, you might want to recall the factory setup or other
stored setup after selecting a different graticule.
The oscilloscope displays waveforms in either of two formats: YT and XY. To
set the display axis format:
TDS 600B: Press DISPLAY ➞ Settings (main) ➞ Display (pop-up) ➞
Format (main) ➞ XY or YT (side).
TDS 500D and TDS 700D models: Press DISPLAY ➞ Settings (main) ➞
Display (pop-up) ➞ Mode (main) ➞ Normal (pop-up) ➞ Format/
RO (main) ➞ XY or YT (side).
