Unit Setup
The Unit Setup dialog box allows you to switch between Full Scale or Per Division
settings for the trace setup and the display settings. Selecting Full Scale configures
the units to the full viewing area of the screen, while Per Division adjusts the units
to a single division (one tenth) of the screen.
The selected radio knob on the Units dialog box shows which setting is active. Use
your finger or the stylus to switch between settings (
).

Trace Setup
The Trace Setup option allows you to change how the vertical scale menu
selections are represented.
NOTE
This setting ONLY changes the vertical scale, the sweep (horizontal) scale is
NOT changed.
NOTE
When adjusting the vertical scale setting, it is important to remember that the
vertical scale is divided into 10 major divisions, and all scale adjustments
reflect this factor of 10. The division set of 10 cannot be changed, divisions
cannot be added or removed.
Trace Full Scale
- changes the dropdown vertical scale menu selections to full scale
mode, which represents the selected unit of measurement over the entire (full)
scale.
Example (
):
Selecting 10V, changes the vertical scale to a 10V volt
scale. The vertical scale is “always” divided by 10, therefore each division is
incremented by 1V.
