Explanation
As shown in the figure below, this setting prevents a trigger from being activated for a
specified time, even when the trigger conditions are met during this time. This is useful
when you wish to activate the trigger in sync with a periodic signal.
Input signal
Repetition period: T
Trigger level
Trigger source
signal
t
Trigger signal limited by hold off time t (when the trigger slope is set to rising edge)
Selectable Range of the Hold Off Time
The selectable range is 80 ns to 10 s (the default value is 80 ns), and the resolution is 20
ns.
Note
• The updating of the waveform may slow down when using repetitive sampling. In such case,
set the hold off time to a smaller value.
• If you are setting the hold off time to 100 ms or greater, set the trigger mode to normal.
• When used with A->B(N) or A Delay B trigger, the hold off time applies only to condition A.
