Advanced Triggering, Search & Navigation, and Segmented Acquisition Labs 3
3000 X-Series Oscilloscopes Advanced Training Guide 53
3000 X-Series oscilloscopes can also perform Search & Navigation to find
multiple edge speed violation conditions, regardless of the specific trigger
setup condition.
17 Set the scope’s timebase to 200.0 µs/div.
18 Press [Run/Stop] to stop repetitive acquisitions (the [Run/Stop] key
should turn red).
19 Press the [Search] front panel key.
20 Press the Search Edge softkey; then turn the Entry knob to select the
Rise/Fall Time search mode.
21 Press the Settings softkey.
22 Press the “< >” softkey; the select “>”.
23 Press the Time softkey; then turn the Entry knob to search for violation
rise times of > 100 ns.
At this timebase setting (200 µs/div), the scope captured over a thousand
edges of this signal. And using the search conditions we entered (rising
edges that exceed 100 ns), the scope should have just found approximately
10 violation edges as shown in Figure 34. The white triangle marks at the
top of the display indicate the location of each “found” violation. Let’s now
“navigate” to each of these detected violations.
24 Press the (zoom) front panel key.
Figure 34 The scope automatically finds several rise time violation edges.
