HDO9000 High Definition Oscilloscopes Operator's Manual
Right-Hand Subdialogs
At times, your selections will require more settings than can fit on one dialog, or the task commonly
invites further action, such as zooming a new trace. In that case, subdialogs will appear to the right of
the dialog. These subdialog settings always apply to the object that is being configured on the left-
hand dialog.
Action Toolbar
Several setup dialogs contain a toolbar at the bottom of the dialog. These buttons enable you to
perform commonplace tasks—such as turning on a measurement—without having to leave the
underlying dialog. Toolbar actions always apply to the active trace.
Measure
opens the Measure pop-up to set measurement parameters on the active trace.
Zoom
creates a zoom trace of the active trace.
Math
opens the Math pop-up to apply math functions to the active trace and create a new math trace.
Decode
opens the main Serial Decode dialog where you configure and apply serial data decoders and
triggers. This button is only active if you have serial data software options installed.
Store
loads the active trace into the corresponding memory location (C1, F1 and Z1 to M1; C2, F2 and
Z2 to M2, etc.).
Find Scale
performs a vertical scaling that fits the waveform into the grid.
Next Grid
moves the active trace to the next grid. If you have only one grid displayed, a new grid will
be created automatically, and the trace moved.
Label
opens the Label pop-up to annotate the active trace.
Histogram
,
Trend
, and
Track
buttons appear at the bottom of the
Parameter
(P
x
) dialogs. They allow
you to create a Math function to plot the parameter while remaining on the measurement dialogs.
