Horizontal/Acquisition Setup control window. C lick the Acquisition tab.
Click each of the five acquisition modes and confirm that the following
statements are true:
H Sample mode displays an actively acquiring waveform on the screen.
(Note that there is a small amount of noise present on the square wave).
H Peak Detect mode displays an actively acquiring waveform with the
high and low values (peaks) of consecutive sample intervals displayed.
Therefore, the noise seen in Sample mode is visible here as well.
H Hi Res mode displays an actively acquiring waveform with the noise
that was seen in Sample mode reduced.
H Average mode displays an actively acquiring waveform with the noise
reduced using a multiple acquisition averaging technique.
H Envelope mode displays an accumulation of multiple acquisitions using
Peak Detect mode.
