Explanation
Hold-off time setting
The hold-off time setting range is 0.2
µ
s to 9.999 s.
The hold-off time will be 0.2
µ
s (minimum) if initialization is performed or if hold-off mode
has been turned “OFF”.
Turning the hold-off function ON/OFF
The hold-off time which has been set will be retained even if the hold-off function is set to
OFF. If the hold-off function is switched ON again, the hold-off time which was in effect
before the hold-off function was switched OFF will be restored.
Points to note when setting the hold-off time
• If the hold-off time has been set to 100 ms or more, do not switch the trigger mode to
auto-mode or auto-level mode. No trigger can be activated properly, as this conflicts with
the time-out period (100 ms).
• The waveform updating interval may get longer depending on the hold-off time. In this
case, switch the hold-off function OFF or change the hold-off time.
