Capturing a single event

To capture a single event, you need to gather some knowledge of the signal

in order to correctly set up the trigger level and slope. If you are not sure

about the instance of the signal, you can observe it through auto or normal

trigger mode to ensure the trigger level and slope will capture the signal.
