Explanation of Functions
X-Y Waveform «For procedures, see section 8.6.»
The voltage relationship between signals can be observed by assigning the voltage of
the input signal of the specified channel on the horizontal axis (X-axis) and the voltage of
another input signal (signal that has the display turned ON) on the vertical axis (Y-axis).
Simultaneous observation of X-Y waveforms and normal T-Y waveforms (waveform
display using voltage axis and time axis) is possible.
You can use the X-Y waveform display function to measure the phase angle between
two sine wave signals. For example, the waveform that appears when two sine
waveforms are shown on the X-Y display is called a Lissajous waveform. From this
waveform, the phase angle can be read.

Snapshot «For procedures, see section 8.7.»
If the trigger mode is set to a mode other than single, the displayed waveforms are
periodically updated or displayed in roll mode.
The snapshot function allows you to temporarily hold the waveform that would be cleared
when the screen is updated (snapshot waveform) on the screen. The snapshot
waveform is displayed in white, allowing for easy comparison against the updated
waveform. The snapshot waveform is a screen image waveform. You can save, load,
and print the screen image data, but cursor measurements, automated measurement of
waveform parameters, zoom, and computation cannot be performed on it.
Snapshot waveforms
Clear Trace «For procedures, see section 8.7.»
You can clear the snapshot waveform and restart averaging and accumulation using one
key operation.
Pressing the CLEAR TRACE key temporarily clears the measured waveforms from the
screen. Pressing the ESC key redisplays them.
Translucent Display «For procedures, see section 8.8.»
The pop-up menu is shown translucent so that the display under the pop-up menu can
be seen.
