The options menu contains two additional softkeys to help configure the oscilloscope.

Expand softkey

When you change a channel’s volts/division setting, the waveform display can be set to expand about ground or set to expand about the center of the display.

Expand About Ground the displayed waveform will expand about the position of the channel’s ground. This is the default setting. The ground level of the signal is identified by the position of the ground level ( ) icon at the far-left side of the display. If the ground level is off screen, the waveform will expand about the top or bottom edge of the screen based on where the ground is off screen.

Expand About Center the displayed waveform will expand about the center graticule on the display.

Default Library softkey (mixed-signal oscilloscopes only)

Press the Default Library softkey to set the labels in the front-panel Label Library softkey back to the factory default labels. This will delete all user-defined labels. Full information about digital channel labels is discussed at the end of the “Megazoom Concepts and Oscilloscope Operation” chapter.
