To place the trigger in memory
In Automatic Acquisition Mode, the exact location of the trigger
depends on the trigger specification but usually falls around the center.
You can manually place it at the beginning, end, or anywhere else.
1In the Analyzer Trigger menu, select Acquisition Control.
The Acquisition Control menu pops up. If the acquisition mode is set to
Automatic, the menu contains a single field and an explanation. If
Acquisition has been customized, it has 3 or 4 fields and a picture
showing where the trigger is currently placed in memory.
2If the mode is Automatic, select the field to toggle it to Manual.
The menu now shows three fields and a picture.
3Select the Trigger Position field.
4Select the appropriate entry for your needs.
Start, Center, and End place the trigger respectively at the beginning,
middle, and end of the memory. Delay, available in timing analyzers
only, causes the analyzer to not save any data before the time delay has
elapsed. User Defined calls up a fourth field where you specify exactly
where you want the trigger.
5Select Done.
