Figure 12-11. Breakpoint Modulus of 500
As another example, if you set the breakpoint repeat period to be 2000
counts and the offset to be –500, breakpoints occur at –4500, –2500, –500,
1500, 3500. If the breakpoint is enabled when the axis is at 2210, the
breakpoints at 1500 and 3500 are both armed, as shown in Figure 12-12.

Each time a breakpoint occurs, re-enable it to load the next breakpoint.
