Multiply
When you select 1*2, channel 1 and channel 2 voltage values
are multiplied point by point, and the result is displayed. 1 * 2 is
useful for seeing power relationships when one of the channels
is proportional to the current.
1Press the Math key, press the 1*2 softkey, then press the Scale
or Offset sofkeys if you want to change the scaling or offset for
the multiply function.
Scale — lets you set your own vertical scale factors for
multiply expressed as V2/div (Volts-squared/division),
A2/div (Amps-squared/division), or W/div (Watts/division
or Volt-Amps/division). Units are set in the channel Probe
menu. Press the Scale softkey, then turn the Entry knob to
rescale 1 * 2.
Offset — lets you set your own offset for the multiply math
function. The offset value is in V2 (Volts-squared), A2
(Amps-squared), or W (Watts) and is represented by the
center horizontal grid line of the display. Press the Offset
softkey, then turn the Entry knob to change the offset for
1*2.
