Triggers
Edge Trigger
The Edge trigger type identifies a trigger by looking for a specified edge (slope)
and voltage level on a waveform. You can define the trigger source and slope in
this menu. The trigger type, source, and level (if applicable) are displayed in the
upper-right corner of the display.
1 On the front panel, in the Trigger section, press the [Trigger] key.
2 In the Trigger Menu, press the Trigger softkey, and use the Entry knob to select
Edge .
3 Select the trigger source:
• Analog channel, 1 to the number of channels
• Digital channel (on mixed-signal oscilloscopes), D0 to the number of digital
channels minus one.
• External — triggers on the rear panel EXT TRIG IN signal.
• Line — triggers at the 50% level of the rising or falling edge of the AC power
source signal.
• WaveGen — triggers at the 50% level of the rising edge of the waveform
generator output signal. (Not available when the DC or Noise waveforms are
selected.)
You can choose a channel that is turned off (not displayed) as the source for the
edge trigger.
The selected trigger source is indicated in the upper-right corner of the display
next to the slope symbol:
• 1 through 4 = analog channels.
• D0 through Dn = digital channels.
• E = External trigger input.
• L = Line trigger.
• W = Waveform generator.
4 Press the Slope softkey and select rising edge, falling edge, alternating edges,
or either edge (depending on the selected source). The selected slope is
displayed in the upper-right corner of the display.
