Channel Descriptor Box
A menu bar of drop-down menus lets you access set up dialogs and
other functions. All functionality can be accessed through either the menu
bar or other shortcuts.
The grid area displays the waveform traces. You can adjust the
brightness of the grid lines to make other objects more visible.
Trigger level (vertical axis) and trigger position (horizontal axis) indicators
appear on the grid when a trigger is set, color-coded to match the input.
Cursors show where measurement points have been set. Touch-and-
drag cursor indicators to quickly reposition the measurement point.
Channel (C1-C4), Zoom (Z1-Z4), Math (F1-F2), Memory (M1-M2), and
Digital (Digital1-Digital2, with MSO option) descriptor boxes appear
immediately below the grid and summarize current settings for each open
trace. Touch the descriptor box to open the corresponding set up dialog.
Timebase and Trigger descriptor boxes appear at the right of the display.
Timebase and Trigger settings only apply to channel traces. Touch the
descriptor box to open the corresponding set up dialog.
Dialogs appear at the bottom of the display for entering set up data. The
top dialog will be the main entry point for the selected function.
For convenience, related dialogs appear as a series of tabs behind the
main dialog. Touch the tab to open the dialog
