4. Push a Vertical Source button (turns amber) to
assign the numbered buttons 1--8 to operate on
channel, reference, or math waveforms. Push a
numbered button 1--8 to select the waveform (it
displays).
A waveform button lights when its waveform is on:
HLighted green: waveform is on but not
selected
HLighted amber: waveform is on and selected
Hint. Step 4 assumes any reference or math
waveforms you select are defined. See Table 3--2
on page 3--56 if you need help defining these
waveforms.
5. Use the Vertical knobs to achieve a good display
of each waveform you select.
