Timebase

Timebase Overview

You can access Timebase settings using the front panel Horizontal controls,
the Timebase → Horizontal Setup... on the menu bar, or by touching the
Timebase trace descriptor label. The main Timebase dialog is then shown
and contains sections for Sampling Mode, Timebase Mode, and Real Time
Memory
.

A section specifically used for combining channels is located on the far
right of the main Timebase dialog
. This section varies based on your
oscilloscope model.

Combining Channels

Digital Bandwidth Interleave (DBI) is a method for combining channels to
double or triple bandwidth, sample rate, and memory lengths - just as
oscilloscope manufacturers have for years interleaved channels to increase
sample rate and memory.

Access the DBI dialog from the TimeBase dialog at TimeBase → Horizontal
Setup...
(touch the DBI tab to show the dialog). You can combine channels
for the Master Acquisition Module (where applicable) and each Slave
Acquisition Module.

A pop-up is shown when using the DBI button controls verifying the proper
connector saver (2.92 mm for 30 or 36 GHZ, or 2.4 mm for 45 GHz).
