Figure 57 - Relative window trigger 

Interval Trigger 

This trigger should be used when the time difference between neighboring rising or falling edges 
meets the one of the time limit conditions (<, >, [--,--], --][--).  

Figure 58 - Interval trigger 

Setting Interval Trigger: 

1.

 

Press the Setup button to enter the TRIGGER menu. 

2.

 

Press  the  Type  softkey.  Use  the  Universal  Knob  to  select  Interval  and  push  the  knob  to 
confirm. 

3. Press the Source softkey and turn the Universal Knob to select one of the analog channels as 

the trigger source. 

4. Press the Slope softkey to select rising or falling edge.

Press the LimitRange softkey. Turn the Universal Knob to select desired condition: 

(less than a time value): trigger when the positive or negative pulse time of the input
signal is less than the specified time value.
