Step 9. Use the Run Control keys

There are two front panel keys for starting and stopping the oscilloscope’s

acquisition system: [Run/Stop] and [Single].

• When the [Run/Stop] key is green, the oscilloscope is acquiring data. To

stop acquiring data, press [Run/Stop]. When stopped, the last acquired

waveform is displayed.

• When the [Run/Stop] key is red, data acquisition is stopped. To start

acquiring data, press [Run/Stop].

• To capture and display a single acquisition (whether the oscilloscope is

running or stopped), press [Single]. After capturing and displaying a

single acquisition, the [Run/Stop] key is red.
