Horizontal 
Scale Knob 
Sets the timebase (horizontal sweep speed) in units 
of one division per indicated time unit. Press the 
knob to enter Zoom mode. 
Horizontal Scale Knob 
Turn the Horizontal Scale knob to adjust the horizontal time base. Turn clockwise to reduce the 
time per division and counterclockwise to increase. 
The time base information at the upper left corner of the screen will change accordingly during 
the adjustment. The range of the horizontal scale is from 1 ns/div to 50 s/div. 
The Horizontal Scale knob works (in the Normal time mode) while acquisitions are running or 
when they are stopped. When in run mode, adjusting the horizontal scale knob changes the 
sample rate. When stopped, adjusting the horizontal scale knob lets you zoom into the acquired 
data. 
Adjust Trigger Delay 
Turn the Horizontal Position knob to adjust the trigger delay of the waveform. This will cause the 
displayed waveforms to move left or right. The delay number at the top of the screen changes 
accordingly. Press this knob to reset the trigger delay to zero. 
Changing the delay time moves the trigger point (blue inverted triangle at the top of the screen) 
horizontally and indicates how far it is from the time at the center of the screen. 
All events displayed left of the trigger point happened before the trigger occurred. These events 
are called pre-trigger information and they show the events that led up to the trigger point. 
Everything to the right of the trigger point is called post-trigger information and these are events 
that  occurred  after  the  trigger.  The  amount  of  delay  range  (pre-trigger  and  post-trigger 
information) available depends on the time/div selected and memory depth. 
The position knob works (in the Normal time mode) while acquisitions are running or when they 
are stopped. 
Roll mode 
Press the Roll button to enter roll mode. 
In Roll mode, the waveform moves slowly across the screen from right to left. It operates only on 
time base settings of 50 ms/div and slower. If the current time base setting is faster than the 50 
ms/div limit, it will be set to 50 ms/div when the Roll button is pressed.
