Functional Buttons
This group of buttons includes trigger setting buttons allowing you to set trigger source
and trigger mode, a Time base button for adjustment, and a Measurement button with
options for various measurement types.
Trigger On/Off
– taps to turn on/off the trigger. The button displays as Trigger Off
when it is activated, and vice versa.
Once the trigger is activated, a voltage scale reference line and a time base
reference line will be displayed on the measurement grid, the cross point of the 2
lines indicates the trigger point, allowing users to adjust its position by moving each
of the 2 lines.
Trigger Source
– assigns the trigger to a specific channel
Trigger Slope
– sets trigger to occur by rising or falling voltage edges
Trigger Mode
– configures the trigger mode:
A.
Normal Mode
– configures the trigger to occur every time when the captured
signal waveform reaches the trigger point, so the scope starts to draw the
waveform when the signal reaches the trigger point.
B.
Auto Mode
– configures the trigger to occur every time when the scope
captures the signal waveforms by the preset trigger point. The scope
continues to draw the waveforms even when the signal is not in the trigger
point range.
Main Time Base
– allows users to select an appropriate time per division. The
time per division (10 divisions) is displayed along the bottom of the screen. The
time base adjustment affects all of the active scope channels at once.
Measure
- allows users to select various types of measurement parameters to be
displayed at the right side of the screen for reference.
A maximum of 5 items each time are allowed to be selected.
To set a specific trigger point
1. Tap the
Trigger On
button to activate the trigger.
2. Configures the specific trigger source, the trigger slope and the trigger mode
according to the test demand.
3. Tap and slide the voltage scale reference line up or down to the desired
voltage point. The voltage info is displayed in a small reference box.
4. Tap and slide the time base reference line left or right to the desired point.
5. Tap
Start
button on the top right side of the screen to activate the scope.
