any SEC/DIV setting. Sample mode is the default mode.
Peak Detect. Use Peak Detect acquisition mode to limit the possibility
of aliasing. Also, use Peak Detect for glitch detection. You can see
glitches as narrow as a 8 ns.

50 MS/s and faster sample rates, the TekScope instrument switches
to Sample acquisition mode automatically.
