Use this menu to set horizontal parameters and enable trigger delay.
To open the Horizontal configuration menu, double-tap the Horizontal badge in the Settings bar.

Description
Horizontal Scale
Set the Horizontal Scale using the assigned multipurpose knob, double-tap to set the scale using the
virtual keypad, or tap the up and down arrows. You can also use the front-panel Horizontal Scale knob
to change this value.
The horizontal scale determines the size of the acquisition window relative to the waveform. You can
scale the window to contain a single waveform edge, a single cycle, several cycles, or thousands of
cycles.
Delay
Delay positions the trigger event to a specified time relative to the center of the waveform record. Use
delay to focus on events that occur before (pretrigger) or after the trigger point (posttrigger).
Position
Set the trigger Position using the assigned multipurpose knob or double-tap to set the Position using
the virtual keypad.
When horizontal Delay is on, the time from the trigger point to the horizontal reference (center of
waveform record) is the horizontal delay. The horizontal position determines the number of pretrigger
and posttrigger samples in the waveform record.
When horizontal delay is off, the trigger point and the horizontal reference are at the same time in the
middle of the waveform record.
Set to 0 s
Sets the delay position to 0 s (center of the waveform record).
Only available when Delay = On.
Set to 10%
Sets the trigger delay to 10% of the waveform record.
Only available when Delay = Off.
Record Length
Select the Record Length from the drop-down list.
Math configuration menu overview
Math waveforms are created by combining and/or mathematically transforming source waveforms into a new waveform for analysis. Use
this menu to create math waveforms (basic or advanced) or add an FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) waveform to the screen.
To access a Math configuration menu, tap the Add Math Ref Bus badge on the Settings bar. Tap the Math button to add a Math waveform
badge. Double-tap the Math badge to open the configuration menu.
Use the following links to access information on the Math waveform menus and settings.
