Trigger Setup

Based on your Trigger Type selection, sections of the main Trigger dialog
and additional dialogs altogether vary.

Most trigger types have Type, Setup, and Level selections. The following
sections explain some of the standard setup configurations for different
trigger types.

1. Make your Type selection by touching the button corresponding to

the desired trigger.

2. Touch inside the trigger Source control for your first Setup

configuration and select a source on which to trigger.

3. If available, touch inside the Coupling control and select a coupling

mode.

Coupling refers to the type of signal coupling at the input of the
trigger circuit. Choices of trigger coupling vary by oscilloscope
model.

With DC coupling, all of the signal's frequency components are
coupled to the trigger circuit for high-frequency bursts.

4. Touch inside the trigger Slope control and choose the direction of

the trigger voltage transition used for generating a particular trigger
event.

The selection is then shown to the right of the dialog as follows for a
Positive Slope selection on an Edge Trigger.
