How to Set the Trigger System
Trigger determines when DSO starts to acquire data and display waveform.
Once trigger is set correctly, it can convert the unstable display to meaningful
waveform.
When DSO starts to acquire data, it will collect enough data to draw waveform
on left of trigger point. DSO continues to acquire data while waiting for trigger
condition to occur. Once it detects a trigger it will acquire enough data
continuously to draw the waveform on right of trigger point.
Trigger control area consists of 1 knob and 2 menu buttons.
Trigger Level
: The knob that set the trigger level; push the knob and the level
will be set as the vertical mid point values of the amplitude of the trigger
signal.
