TRIGGERING
LEVEL
Control-Selects
a
point
on
the
trigger
signal
where
triggering
occurs
.
SLOPE
Switch-Permits
sweep
to
be
triggered
on
negative or
positive-going
portions
of
the
trigger
signal
.
READY
Indicator-Illuminates
when
sweep
circuit
is
armed
(SINGLE
SWEEP
Mode)
.
TRIG'D
Indicator-Illuminates
when
the
display
is
triggered
.
MODE
Pushbuttons-Selects
the
operating
mode
of
the
triggering circuit
.
COUPLING
Pushbuttons-Selects
the
method
of
coupling
the
trigger
signal
to
triggering
circuit
.
SOURCE
Pushbuttons-Selects
source
of
the
trigger
signal
.

Operating
Instructions-7B80
HOLD
OFF
Control-Permits
hold
off
period
to
be
varied to
improve
trigger
stability
on
repetitive
complex
waveforms
.
VARIABLE
Control
and
CAL
Switch-Selects
calibrated
or
uncalibrated
sweep
rates
.
Uncalibrated
sweep
rates
can
be
continuously
reduced
to
at
least
the
sweep
rate
of
the
next
slower
position
.
SWP
CAL
Adjustment-Compensates
for
basic
timing
changes
due
to
the
differences
in
sensitivity
of
mainframes
