Explanation
Rotary count can be used. The counter is increased or decreased according to the phase 
change of phase A and B.
Setting the Count Conditions
•  Waveform to be Computed of Phase A
Select from CH1 to CH4 or from REF1 to REF4. If you press a key from CH1 to CH4 
on the front panel, the selected channel becomes the waveform to be computed.
•  Determination Level of Phase 
A
  The state in which the waveform of phase A exceeds the specified level is 1 and 0 
otherwise.
• 
W
aveform to be Computed of Phase B
Select from CH1 to CH4 or from REF1 to REF4.
•  Determination Level of Phase B
 
The state in which the waveform of phase B exceeds the spec
ified level is 1 and 0 
otherwise.
•  Changes in the Phase of Phase 
A and Phase B
 
The counter is increased or decreased according to the phase change (change in the 
0 and 1 states) in phase A
 and phase B as shown below.

Direction of change
•  Setting the Count Start Point
  Sets the start point of counting.
  Selectable range:
  –5.00 divisions to 5.00 divisions
 
Resolution:  
0.01 division
  You can also set the following points (Jump to).
  Trig Pos (trigger position), –5div
, 0div, Zoom1 (center position of Zoom1), or Zoom2 
(center position of Zoom2)
