The following steps show you how to use the oscilloscope to capture a
single event.
1.
Set the Probe option attenuation to 10X and set the
switch to 10X on the probe.
2.
Trigger set up:
a.
Press “TRIG MENU” button to show the “Trigger
Menu”
b.
Under this menu, set the trigger type to “edge”,
Edge type is “Rising”, source is “CH1”, trigger
mode is “Single”, coupling is “DC”
c.
Adjust the horizontal time base and vertical
scale to the satisfied range
d.
Turn the “LEVEL” knob to adjust the trigger level
3.
Press the “RUN/STOP” button to start capturing
When the trigger conditions are satisfied, data appears on the display
representing the data points that the oscilloscope obtained with one
acquisition. Pressing the RUN/STOP button again rearms the trigger circuit
and erases the display.

Analyzing Signal Details
You have a noisy signal displayed on the oscilloscope and need to know
more about it. You suspect that the signal contains much more detail than
you can now see in the display.
Looking at a Noisy Signal
The signal appears noisy and you suspect that noise is causing
problems in your circuit. To analyze the noise better, follow
these steps:
1.
Press the “ACQUIRE” button to see the acquire menu.
2.
Press the “Acquisition” option button or turn the
“Universal” knob to select “Peak Detect”.
3.
If necessary, press the “DISPLAY” button to see “Display
menu”. Turn the “Universal” knob to adjust waveform
intensity and grid brightness to see the noise more
clearly.
