Scale. If wavef
orm acquisition is stopped (using the Run/Stop or Single button),
the Scale control expands or compresses the waveform. Use to zoom in on a
detail of the waveform.
Scan Mode Display (Roll Mode). When the Scale control is set to 100 ms/div
or slower and the trigger mode is set to Auto, the oscilloscope enters the Scan
acquisitio
n mode. In this mode, the waveform display updates from left to right.
There is no trigger or horizontal p osition control of waveforms during scan mode.
(See page 95, Scan Mode Display.)
Window Zone. Use the Window Zone option to define a segment of a waveform
to see in more detail (zoom). The Window time base setting cannot be set slower
than the M
ain time base setting.
Vertical bars define Window Zone
Main time base displayed Window zone displayed
Window. Expands the Window Zone to cover the entire screen. Use to change
betw
een two time bases.
NOTE. When you change between the Main, Window Zone, and Window views,
the oscilloscope erases any waveform saved on the screen through persistence.
Persistence is erase d with Horizontal menu changes.
Set Trigger Holdoff. Use holdoff to help stabilize the display of complex
waveforms. (See page 117, Trigger Holdoff.)
Math
Push the Math button to display waveform math operations. Push the Math
button again to remove math waveforms. (See page 120, Vertical Controls.)
