Trigger Menu

There are two types of triggering available; Edge and Video. The edge triggering is the same format as on the conventional oscillloscope, which follows either the rising or falling edge of a waveform as its trigger point.
Video triggering uses a video signal to find its trigger point (which we will not be getting into).

Edge/Video:
Toggle between Edge and Video triggering

Slope:
Select rising or falling edge trigger

Source:
Select the input source for the trigger.

Mode:
Auto: Allows the aquistion to run an untriggered scanning waveform (with a time base of 100ms/div)
Normal: Used only when a waveform has a usable trigger point.
Single: Used to capture one acquisition in a single timeframe. The acquisition taken will depend on the ACQUISITION MODE

Coupling:
Used to reject/filter the trigger signal used for aquisition.
AC: Blocks DC
DC: Passes all of the signal through
Noise Reject: Like DC, but increases the peak to peak signal required
HF Reject: Attenuates frequencies above 80kHz LF Reject: Filters out DC and attenuates frequencies below 30kHz
