CSA7000 Series, TDS7000 Series, & TDS6000 Series Instruments User Manual 3-17
Autoset automatically sets up the instrument controls (acquisition, display,
horizontal, trigger, and vertical) based on the characteristics of the input signal.
Autoset is much faster and easier than a manual control-by-control setup. When
the input signal is connected, do an autoset to automatically set up the instru-
ment:
Overview To autoset the instrument Control elements and resources
Prerequisites 1. Signals must be connected to channels. A triggering
source must be provided.
See page 3--71 in this manual for trigger setup
information.
Execute 2. Push the Autoset button to execute an Autoset.
If you use Autoset when one or more channels are
displayed, the instrument selects the lowest numbered
channel for horizontal scaling and triggering. All
channels in use are individually vertically scaled.
If you use Autoset when no channels are displayed, the
instrument turns on channel one (CH 1) and scales it.

Autoset Undo
3. The Autoset Undo control window opens automatically
after an Autoset operation. Click Undo if you want to
undo the last Autoset.
Only the parameters that were set by the last Autoset
are undone. Parameters that you changed that are not
controlled by Autoset retain their settings.
If you don’t want this window to appear, set the
Utilities/User Preferences/Autoset Undo button to Off.
You can still do an Autoset Undo using the Horiz/Acq
menu.
