Setting Other Trigger Parameters
These are trigger system parameters that apply in all trigger modes.
See Also “To specify a trigger holdoff” on page 42.
“To reset the trigger offset” on page 42.
To set the trigger sweep
Trigger sweep specifies whether acquisitions occur without a trigger or
only with a trigger.
1 Press Mode/Coupling
.
2 In the Trigger menu, press Sweep to select one of these trigger sweep
settings:
• Auto — acquire waveform even when no trigger occurs.
• Normal — acquire waveform when trigger occurs.
To set the trigger coupling
Trigger coupling is used to filter low or high frequency signal components
or DC offsets from the trigger path when they interfere with achieving
stable triggers.
Trigger coupling is similar to channel coupling (see page 46), but it only
affects the triggering system and does not change how the signal is
displayed.
To set the trigger coupling:
