6.7 Triggering by Analog Signals
158
Applicable timebase range is from 20 µs to 50 ms/division.
Triggering occurs when peak voltage drops below the specified level for more
than one-half cycle. Voltage sag triggering is not available with the Model 8958
16-Ch Scanner Unit.

Setting Example
Apply a trigger if a 60-Hz mains fre-
quency input signal, nominally
about 240 Vrms (340 Vpeak),
drops below 198 Vrms (280 Vpeak)
