Now, click the corresponding control and provide a value.
Use holdoff to obtain a stable trigger for repetitive, composite waveforms.
For example, if the number or duration of sub-signals is known you can
disable them by choosing an appropriate holdoff value. Qualified triggers
operate using conditions similar to holdoff.

Sometimes you can achieve a stable display of complex, repetitive
waveforms by placing a condition on the time between each successive
trigger event. This time would otherwise be limited only by the input signal,
the coupling, and the instrument's bandwidth. Select a positive or negative
slope, and a minimum time between triggers. The trigger is generated
when the condition is met after the selected holdoff time, counted from
the last trigger. The delay is initialized and started on each trigger.
Edge Trigger with Holdoff by Time. The bold edges on the trigger source indicate
that a positive slope has been selected. The broken upward-pointing arrows
indicate potential triggers, which would occur if other conditions are met. The
bold arrows indicate where the triggers actually occur when the holdoff time has
been exceeded.
