DIGITAL DISPLAY

VERT MAGNIFY

In the digital mode, the displayed signal can be expanded vertically after it has been captured. This allows you to look to signal details. Please note that the magnified representation of the signal has the same resolution as the originally acquired signal.

-Press the ANALOG key to select the digital mode.

-Press AUTOSET.

-Remove the probe tip from the Probe Adjust output.

-Turn the TRIGGER POSITION control to mid screen (counterclockwise).

-Press the SINGLE key to prepare the scope for a single acquisition.

-Touch the probe tip to the Probe Adjust output.

The scope ’runs’ once and a signal appears on the screen.

-Press the DISPLAY key.

-Press the VERT MAGNIFY softkey to turn it on.

-Turn the TRACK control clockwise.

The signal magnifies a maximum of 32 times. The magnification factor is displayed in the DISPLAY menu. At the same time the vertical deflection in the bottom text area reflects the expanded deflection factor.

-Use the TRACK control to adjust VERT MAGNIFY to 8.

Observe that you can observe the signal in more detail. It has the same vertical resolution as when captured. Notice the adc noise being displayed.

Vertical magnify is very useful when you want to observe a signal detail with very high resolution. You can use it in combination with the horizontal MAGNIFY function.
