Use Sequence Mode
Sequence is also a kind of acquisition mode, which does not display waveform during
sampling process. It improves the waveform capture rate, and the maximal capture rate is
more than 300,000 wfs/s. So it can capture the small probability event effectively.
The oscilloscope runs and fills a memory segment for each trigger event. The oscilloscope
is busy acquiring multiple segments. The oscilloscope continues to trigger until memory is
filled, and then display the waveforms on the screen.
To use the sequence mode, the HORIZONTAL Format must be set to
YT
.
Do the following steps to use the sequence mode.
1. Press the Acquire button on the front panel to enter the ACQUIRE function menu;
2. Press the Sequence softkey to enter the SEQUENCE function menu.

3. Press the Segments Set softkey; and then turn the Universal Knob to select the
desired value.
The Segments Set display format is A/B, A is the frame number you set by
turning the Universal Knob and B is the maximal number that you can set under
the time base.
Do the following steps to replay the sequence waveform under history mode:
1. Press the History softkey to enable HISTORY function .
