2If you are triggering on analog channel events, turn the Trigger Level knob to the trigger threshold to a level that your waveform will cross.

3To begin a single acquisition, press the Single key.

When you press Single, the display is cleared, the trigger circuitry is armed, the Single key is illuminated yellow, and the oscilloscope will wait until a trigger condition occurs before it displays a waveform.

When the oscilloscope triggers, the single acquisition is displayed and the oscilloscope is stopped (the Run/Stop key is illuminated in red).

4To acquire another waveform, press Single again.

Auto Single

Auto-trigger will generate a trigger for you if one is not found in the predetermined time (about 40 ms) after you press Single. If you want to make a single acquisition and you are not particularly interested in triggering the acquisition (for example, if you are probing a DC level), set the trigger mode to Auto (see page 131) and press the Single key. If a trigger condition occurs, it will be used; if a trigger doesn’t happen, an untriggered acquisition will be taken.

To pan and zoom

You can pan across and zoom-in on a waveform even when the acquisition system is stopped.

1Press the Run/Stop key to stop acquisitions (or press the Single key and allow the oscilloscope to acquire the waveform and stop). The Run/Stop key is illuminated red when the oscilloscope is stopped.

2Turn the sweep speed knob to zoom horizontally and turn the volts/division knob to zoom vertically.

The ∇ symbol at the top of the display indicates the time reference point where the zoom-in/zoom-out is referenced.
