Select<strong>in</strong>g the trigger mode<br />

The trigger system has several trigger modes:<br />

Ris<strong>in</strong>g slope<br />

Fall<strong>in</strong>g slope<br />

trigger on the ris<strong>in</strong>g slope of a signal<br />

trigger on the fall<strong>in</strong>g slope of a signal<br />

To change the trigger mode, enter the Trigger menu and select the Trigger mode item. A menu will popup and a trigger<br />

mode selection can be made. Another way to change the trigger mode is by us<strong>in</strong>g the trigger symbol. Double<br />

trigger level will be set to a value that lies <strong>in</strong> the middle between the highest and the lowest value of the previous<br />

measurement. This can be very useful with cont<strong>in</strong>uously chang<strong>in</strong>g signals. When auto level trigger<strong>in</strong>g is selected, the<br />

trigger symbol will show that with a letter A <strong>in</strong> the symbol. The level can no longer be adjusted with the symbol.<br />

Note: When a trigger source External is selected the trigger level adjustment is disabled.<br />
