Triggering on Edges

If the signal is unstable or has a very low frequency, use
edge triggering to obtain full manual trigger control.

To trigger on rising edges of the input A waveform, do the
following:

1

TRIGGER

Display the

TRIGGER

key labels.

2

F4

Open the

TRIGGER OPTIONS

menu.

3

ENTER

Open the

TRIGGER ON EDGE

menu.

When Free Run is selected, the test tool updates the
screen even if there are no triggers. A trace always
appears on the screen.

When On Trigger is selected, the test tool needs a trigger
to display a waveform. Use this mode if you want to
update the screen only when valid triggers occur.

When Single Shot is selected, the test tool waits for a
trigger. After receiving a trigger, the waveform is displayed
and the instrument is set to HOLD.

In most cases it is advised to use the Free Run mode:

4

ENTER

Select Free Run, jump to Trigger
Filter
.

5

ENTER

Set Trigger Filter to Off.

Observe that the key labels at the bottom of the screen
have adapted to allow further selection of specific edge
trigger settings:
