•When the horizontal mode is set to Main, the horizontal position knob positions the main sweep relative to the trigger. This delay is a fixed number. Changing this delay value does not affect the sweep speed.

•When the horizontal mode is set to Zoom, the horizontal position knob controls the position of the Zoom sweep window inside the main sweep display. This delay value is independent of sampling interval and sweep speed. Changing the delay does not affect the position of the main window.

5Turn the horizontal position knob ( ) and notice that its value is displayed in the status line.

The horizontal position knob moves the main sweep horizontally, and it pauses at 0.00 s, mimicking a mechanical detent. Changing the horizontal position moves the sweep horizontally and indicates how far the trigger point (solid

inverted triangle) is from the time reference point (hollow inverted triangle ∇ ). These reference points are indicated

along the top of the display grid. The previous figure shows

the trigger point with the delay time (horizontal position) set to 400 ∝s. The delay time number tells you how far the time

reference point is located from the trigger point. When delay time (horizontal position) is set to zero, the delay time indicator overlays the time reference indicator.

All events displayed left of the trigger point happened before the trigger occurred, and these events are called pre-trigger information. You will find this feature very useful because you can now see the events that led up to the trigger point. Everything to the right of the trigger point is called post-trigger information. The amount of delay range (pre-trigger and post-trigger information) available depends on the sweep speed selected and memory depth.
