Run Control
When the oscilloscope is turned on, or if [Auto Scale] is pressed, the
acquisition will be set to [Run]. At any time you may [Stop] the acquisition
process to examine a signal in detail or to save it.
• The [Default Setup] key on the front panel sets the oscilloscope to the
default configuration.
Because the oscilloscope may have been used in a variety of

to put the oscilloscope in a known starting mode (Default Setup). This
makes it easy to duplicate measurements because no special conditions
are set.

oscilloscope by analyzing all active channels, turning them on and
setting the timebase, V/div, and trigger conditions for an initial display.
• Press the [Single] key to make a single acquisition and stop the
acquisition process.

acquisition modes.
