Table A- 2: System - Timebase
Description Characteristics
Sampling rate DC-200 kHz maximum, dictated by trigger rate and actual holdoff
setting. If trigger rate is less than the maximum, or the requested
holdoff exceeds the minimum, the trigger rate and/or holdoff will dictate
the sampling rate.
Record length120, 50, 100, 250, 500, 1,000, 2,000, or 4,000 samples.
Horizontal scale
range
1 ps/div to 5 ms/div in 1, 2, 5 steps or 1 ps increments. Maximum
record lengths apply at certain ranges (per table, below).
g
Scale set to an integer multiple of: Maximum record length
1 ps/div 1000
2 ps/div 2000
4 ps/div 4000
Horizontal position
range
50 ms maximum.
Horizontal resolution 10 fs minimum

Horizontal modes Two modes, Short Term Optimized and Locked to 10 MHz Reference.
The 10 MHz reference may be internal or external.

Strobe placement accuracy for a given horizontal interval and position
on same strobe line per table below. (Contribution from 80E04
sampling module is included in specification.)
