This chapter shows how to use the oscilloscope's acquisition and run controls.
Running, Stopping, and Making Single Acquisitions (Run Control)
There are two front panel keys for starting and stopping the oscilloscope's
acquisition system:
[Run/Stop]
and
[Single]
.
• When the
[Run/Stop]
key is green, the oscilloscope is running, that is, acquiring
data when trigger conditions are met.
To stop acquiring data, press
[Run/Stop]
. When stopped, the last acquired
waveform is displayed.
• When the
[Run/Stop]
key is red, data acquisition is stopped.
"Stop" is displayed next to the trigger type in the status line at the top of the
display.
To start acquiring data, press
[Run/Stop]
.
• To capture and display a single acquisition (whether the oscilloscope is running
or stopped), press
[Single]
.
The
[Single]
run control lets you view single-shot events without subsequent
waveform data overwriting the display. Use
[Single]
when you want maximum
memory depth for pan and zoom.
