Trigger modes
Trigger modes :
”norm” = Normal trigger
A triggering (or manual trigger) must occur before
the sample memory is filled. Use this mode when you
want to start displaying the signal when it reaches a
preset threshold value. (Fig 43)
“run” = Auto-trigger mode
The scope automatically triggers if no triggering
occurs for a fixed period of time. This position is used
most frequently and should always be used for mea-
suring DC voltages in particular. (Fig 44)
“once” = Sampling starts after a trigger.
Afterwards, the scope switches to ‘HOLD’-mode.
Use this mode to detect e.g. a short, once-only voltage
peak. (Fig 45). Press “memory” repeatedly for a new
triggering.
“roll” = Roll-mode, available for timebases of 1s/div
or slower. Sampling is continuous and the screen
starts rolling as soon as it is full. Use this position for
“recording” slow moving dc signals. (Fig 46)

Notes:
• Pressing the Right cursor key generates a manual
triggering (except in ‘HOLD’-mode)
• Changing the trigger mode switches the auto-
range mode immediately off.
• At time base of 1s/div and slower, the input
coupling is DC-only
• Normal triggering is the only triggermode for
timebases of 1µs/div or faster because of the
oversampling method.
• Keep pressing the trigger key during “hold”
mode stores the current screen into memory.
• When no markers are displayed, the cursorkeys
are set for changing the timebase or input sensiti-
vity when no keys are pressed during 10 seconds
