Triggering the Oscilloscope

•Pattern 2 Entered — A pattern is entered on the last edge that makes the pattern true (logical AND).

•Pattern 2 Exited — A pattern is exited on the first edge that makes the pattern false (logical NAND).

•Edge 2

•Pattern 2 and Edge 2

•Nth Edge 2

•Nth Edge 2 (no re-find)

2Press the Trigger: softkey and select a stage to trigger on.

3To define the term(s) used in the Trigger on: stage, press the Term softkey and select the pattern or edge term displayed in the Trigger: softkey.

4If you select a pattern term, each channel in the pattern must be set to a H (high), L (low), or X (don't care).

a Press the Channel softkey (or rotate the Entry knob on mixed-signal oscilloscopes) to select the channel.

b Press the L H X softkey to set a level for the channel. c Repeat for all channels in the pattern.

5If you select an edge term, one channel must be set to a rising edge or a falling edge. All other channel edges will be set to don’t care (X).

a Press the Channel softkey (or rotate the Entry knob on mixed-signal oscilloscopes) to select the channel.

The channel you select is shown in the upper-right corner of the display next to “Seq”.

bThen press the X softkey to select rising edge or falling edge. All other channel edges will be defaulted to don’t care.

6When you set a Trigger on: condition to trigger on Edge 2, you can also select which occurrence of Edge 2 to trigger on.

a Make sure Nth Edge 2 or Nth Edge 2 (no re-find)is selected in the Trigger: softkey.

When Nth Edge 2 is selected, if the Find event occurs again before the Count (N) event is satisfied, Count (N) will be reset to zero.
