Input signal into Channel #1
A trigger should be produced and the capture continues to the end. While
capturing, you should have seen the waveform for Channel #1 go from a zero
baseline in the center of the channel to a sine wave within the grid on both the
color display and the chart.
Note: you do not need to run the chart when you capture data.

Data Review
DISCUSSION
Data capture records can be reviewed on the color display as well as on the
chart paper. Typically, the review is done on the display and then sections of
interest are printed on the paper. During review, the timebase can be expanded
or compressed to give appropriate detail of the signal.

2. Note that you can expand or
compress the timebase for data playback to the chart. For long data records, it
is suggested to use maximum compression for the first playback to conserve chart
paper. Then, expand the playback to get the detail you need. As you change the
starting and ending points from 100%, you can expand the playback timebase.
