This function activates a trigger on a single trigger source.
Input Signal Trigger
A trigger is activated when the trigger source (input signal of CH1 to CH16, Logic A, or
Logic B) reaches or exceeds the preset trigger level (rising) or falls to or below the
trigger level (falling) or both.*

A trigger is activated when the specified trigger condition is met. At this point, the waveform is
ready to be displayed on the screen.

A trigger is activated using the external signal applied to the EXT TRIG IN terminal on
the side panel of the SL1400.

the SL1400. Waveforms synchronized to the commercial power supply frequency (50
Hz or 60 Hz) can be observed.
