GETTING STARTED MANUAL
81 WSMXs-B-GSM-E Rev A
1. Touch Timebase → Horizontal Setup on the menu bar.
2. Click the Sequence tab.
3. Under Acquisition Settings, touch inside the Number of Settings
data entry field and enter the number of segments you want to
display.
Note: The number of segments you choose to display can be less
than the total number of segments in the waveform. For example,
in the pop-up images above, the number of display segments is
10, but the total number of segments entered in the timebase
dialog's Number of Segments field is 100.
4. Touch the Enable Timeout checkbox.
5. Touch inside the Timeout data entry field and enter a timeout
value.
Note: Use the sequence mode timeout to automatically interrupt
the sequence acquisition if the timeout value is exceeded without
a valid trigger. The timeout period accounts for instances when a
Number of Segments miscount occurs for some reason and the
oscilloscope waits indefinitely for an unforthcoming segment.
During that time, no oscilloscope functions are accessible. By
means of a timeout value, however, the acquisition will be
completed, the waveform displayed, and control of the
oscilloscope returned to the user after the timeout has elapsed.
5. Under Display Settings, touch inside the Display mode field, and
select a sequence mode display from the pop-up menu.
6. Touch the SINGLE trigger front panel button.
Note: Once a single acquisition has started, you can interrupt the
acquisition at any time by pressing the SINGLE front panel button a
second time or by pressing the STOP front panel button. In this
case, the segments already acquired will be retained in memory.
