time, the DSO will not trigger until the holdoff time is over.

4.7 Explanation of nouns
(1) Trigger source: Trigger can be achieved from several signal sources: input channels
(CH1 and CH2), external triggers (EXT) and AC line.
■ Input channel: The most frequently-used trigger source is input channel (selectable).
The selected channel as trigger source can operate normally no matter its input is
