Other Useful Functions
Initialization
≡
Page 4-3.
≡
This function resets the key settings to the factory settings (default settings), and is useful when
complex settings have been made and you want to cancel all of them at once.
Auto Set-up
≡
Page 4-4.
≡
This function makes settings automatically such as vertical sensitivity, time axis and trigger
settings, to suit the signal to be measured. This is useful when the signal to be measured is
unknown. However, there might be particular signals for which the auto set-up function may not
work properly.
Snapshot
≡
Page 4-8.
≡
If single start or log start is not selected, a waveform is updated at the specified intervals or is
displayed in roll mode. Thus, to retain the currently displayed waveform, acquisition must be
stopped. Use of the snapshot function allows the currently displayed waveforms to remain
temporarily on the screen without acquisition being stopped. To activate this function, just press
the SNAP SHOT key without stopping acquisition. The currently displayed waveform will be
retained. This waveform is called a snapshot waveform. The snapshot waveform is displayed
with a white color from that used for the updated waveform, making comparison between the
two easier.
Cursor measurements, automatic measurement of waveform parameters, and saving of the data
cannot be done on the snap shot waveform, because it is a screen image data. However, screen
image data output (hard copy) is possible.

Clear Trace
≡
Page 4-8.
≡
This function enables you to clear snapshot waveforms and accumulated waveforms, and restart
the averaging process or repetitive sampling in a single operation.
