Mode Definition
EDGE Edge trigger mode.
GLITch Trigger on a pulse that has a width less than a specified amount of time.
ADVanced Allows access to the DELay, PATTern, STATe, TV, and VIOLation modes.
COMM COMM mode lets you trigger on a serial pattern of bits in a waveform.
DELay Delay by Events mode lets you view pulses in your waveform that occur a
number of events after a specified waveform edge. Delay by Time mode lets
you view pulses in your waveform that occur a long time after a specified
waveform edge.
PATTern Pattern triggering lets you trigger the oscilloscope using more than one
channel as the trigger source. You can also use pattern triggering to trigger
on a pulse of a given width.
STATe State triggering lets you set the oscilloscope to use several channels as the
trigger source, with one of the channels being used as a clock waveform.
TV TV trigger mode lets you trigger the oscilloscope on one of the standard
television waveforms. You can also use this mode to trigger on a custom
television waveform that you define.
VIOLation Trigger violation modes: Pulse WIDth, SETup, TRANsition.
