WINDow Window triggering lets you define a window on screen and then trigger
when the waveform exits the window, enters it, or stays inside/outside
the window for too long/short.
ADVanced Allows backward compatibility access to the DELay, PATTern, STATe, TV,
and VIOLation modes.
COMM COMM mode lets you trigger on a serial pattern of bits in a waveform.
DELay Delay by Events mode lets you view pulses in your waveform that occur
a number of events after a specified waveform edge. Delay by Time
mode lets you view pulses in your waveform that occur a long time after
a specified waveform edge.
PATTern Pattern triggering lets you trigger the oscilloscope using more than one
channel as the trigger source. You can also use pattern triggering to
trigger on a pulse of a given width.
STATe State triggering lets you set the oscilloscope to use several channels as
the trigger source, with one of the channels being used as a clock
waveform.
TV TV trigger mode lets you trigger the oscilloscope on one of the standard
television waveforms. You can also use this mode to trigger on a custom
television waveform that you define.
VIOLation Trigger violation modes: Pulse WIDth, SETup, TRANsition.
