Delay
The Delay trigger works in tandem with the edge
trigger, by waiting for a specified time (duration) or
number of events before the delay trigger starts.
This method allows pinpointing a location in a long
series of trigger events.
Note: when using the delay trigger, the edge
trigger source can be any one of the channel
inputs, the EXT* input or the AC line. *EXT only
available on 2 channel models.

Pulse Width
Triggers when the pulse width of the signal is less
than, equal, not equal or greater than a specified
pulse width.
Pulse width
Video
Extracts a sync pulse from a video format signal,
and triggers on a specific line or field.
Pulse and Runt
Triggers on a “runt”. A runt is a pulse that passes a
specified threshold but fails to pass a second
threshold. Both positive and negative runts can be
detected.

Trigger on rising and or falling edges, below or
over a specified rate. The threshold can also be
specified.
