You can adjust a relative time delay for each channel. This lets you align the
signals to compensate for signals that may come in from cables of differing
lengths. The oscilloscope applies deskew values after it completes each
acquisition; therefore, the deskew values do not affect logic triggering. Also,
deskew has no affect on XY and XYZ display formats.
