PicoScope 6 User Guide

7.7Scope Setup toolbar

The Scope Setup toolbar controls the time-related settings of your oscilloscope. It

normally looks like this:

Standard controls

Timebase control. When the active view is a scope view, this sets the time represented by a single division of the horizontal axis when the zoom 58 factor is 100%. The timebases available depend on the type of scope device 68 you are using.

Choosing a timebase of 200 ms/div or slower causes PicoScope to switch to roll mode. Instead of redrawing the whole waveform many times every second, roll mode causes the waveform to move continuously from right to left, with old data disappearing off the left- hand side and new data being added on the right-hand side. This mode is more convenient for viewing slowly changing data.

Additional controls

You can customize the Scope Setup toolbar to include the following additional controls. See Toolbars 44 for instructions on customizing.

Samples control. Sets the number of samples that fit across the width of the Scope view 14. Increasing this number increases the time resolution of the display. If PicoScope will not let you select as many samples as you would like, try:

1.Reducing the oversampling factor

2.Selecting a slower timebase.

Oversampling control. This is set to 1 by default, so that oversampling is disabled. See Oversampling 12 for more information.
