CH N
Each channel key turns on an analog channel, selects it, and opens the "Channel"
menu with the vertical settings of the selected channel. The key is illuminated in the
channel color, if the channel is active.
The effect of the keypress depends on state of the channel:
●
If channel is off: Pressing the key turns on the channel and selects it. The rotary
knobs alongside light up in the channel color.
●
If the channel is on: Pressing the key selects the channel waveform and opens its
channel setup menu.
POSITION / OFFSET
The rotary knob adjusts the vertical position or the DC offset (if enabled). It lights up in
the color of the selected waveform. Pressing the key toggles the parameter, the current
parameter and its value are shown in a temporary label marked with the channel color.
At zero-crossing, the knob shortly snaps in and the setting is kept constant to simplify
the zero-setting.
Note:
By default, offset is disabled. Press "Offset" in the "Channel" menu to enable the
offset.
SCALE
Sets the vertical scale in Volts per division to change the amplitude of the selected
channel, math, or reference waveform. The current value is shown in the waveform
label above the grid. The knob lights up in the color of the selected waveform.
Turn SCALE clockwise to stretch the waveform. Doing so, the scale value V/div
decreases. Press the knob to toggle between fine and rough adjustment.
SIGNAL OFF
Turns off the selected signal and selects the next channel, math or reference wave-
form.
The key lights up in the color of the selected signal and changes the light according to
the new selection.
REF
Provides functions for working with reference waveforms on the instrument.
MATH
Provides functions to create equations and display calculated data.
3.1.7 HORIZONTAL Controls
In the HORIZONTAL section you find the knobs for horizontal positioning and scaling,
the acquisition settings, zoom and search settings, and timestamp markers.
