To select a
preset trigger
level
1. Push the ADVANCED button, and select the A Event
tab.
2. Select a Trigger Type, such as Edge, that uses a level
adjustment.
3. Select Level and click the keyboard icon to display the
keyboard. Select either TTL, ECL, or USER:
HTTL fixes the trigger level at +1.4 V.
HECL fixes the trigger level at --1.3 V.
HUSER fixes the trigger level at the USER preset
voltage.
When you set the volts/div smaller than 200 mV, the
instrument reduces the TTL or ECL trigger levels below
standard TTL and ECL levels. This reduction occurs
because the trigger level range is fixed at ±12 divisions
from the center. At 100 mV (the next smaller setting
after 200 mV) the trigger range is ±1.2 V, which is
smaller than the typical TTL (+1.4 V) or ECL (--1.3 V)
level.
