The upper trace is the main timebase trace. This first trace shows an intensified part. Adjust the TRACE INTENSITY with the control as necessary. The lower trace is the delayed timebase trace and is an expanded representation of the intensified part in the upper trace.

Step 3 Turn the DELAY knob to shift the intensified part and to select which part of the main timebase you want to magnify.

Step 4 The delayed timebase TIME/DIV keys are used to select the ’magnification factor’. Notice the changing delayed timebase ’TIME/ DIV’ readout at the bottom of the screen.

Step 5 The ’T’ symbol at the fourth blue softkey indicates that the cursor TRACK control can be used to make adjustments. In this menu the cursor TRACK control is used to change the TRACE SEParation, which is the distance between the main timebase and the delayed timebase.

The delayed timebase can be used in the triggered mode. The triggered mode is selected with the STARTS/TRIG’D softkey. The function of the triggered mode will be explained in Chapter 4. For this part of "Getting Started", remain in the STARTS mode.

Step 6 Switch the menu off with the TEXT OFF key. Notice that the delayed timebase is still active and that the most important functions (DELAY control and TIME/DIV key pair) still allow you to operate the delayed timebase.
