Time Setting:
As shown in the figure below, positive slope time is defined as the time difference
between the two crossing points of trigger level upper limit and lower limit with the
positive edge and negative slope time is defined as the time difference between the
two crossing points of trigger level upper limit and lower limit with the negative edge.
Figure 5-4 Positive Slope Time/Negative Slope Time
 When the Slope Condition is set to
, , or ,
press Time and use to input the desired value. The range available is from 8
ns to 10 s.
 When the Slope Condition is set to or , press Upper Limit
and Lower Limit and use to input the desired values respectively. The
range of time upper limit is from 16 ns to 10 s. The range of the time lower limit
is from 8 ns to 9.99 s. Note that the time lower limit must be lower than the
upper limit.
Vertical Window:
Press Vertical to select the desired vertical window and then use TRIGGER
LEVEL to adjust the trigger level. During the adjustment, two orange trigger level
lines and two trigger marks (
and ) appear on the screen and move up and
down with the rotation of the knob, while at the same time, the trigger level value
and the slope value are displayed at the lower left corner of the screen. When
stopping turning the knob, the trigger level lines and trigger marks disappear in
about 2 s.
When the Slope Condition is set to
, , or , the
current trigger level and slope will be displayed at the lower left corner of the screen,
as shown in figure (a). The slope calculation formula is:
The upper limit of trigger level (Up Level)
The lower limit of trigger level (Low Level)
