Quick Tips
H B-trigger delay time and horizontal delay time are independent functions. When you establish a trigger
condition using either the A trigger alone or the A and B triggers together, you can also use horizontal delay
to delay the acquisition by an additional amount.
H When using t he B trigger, t he A trigger can be any of the following types: Edge, Glitch, Width, or Timeout.
The B trigger type is always Edge type .
