range
Since the RANGE affects the hardware operation (amplier sensitivity), it cannot be altered during capturing
or replaying.
The RANGE setting is common to the RANGE setting of the Y-T graph.
The display amplitude of the waveform is determined by the range and X-Y dedicated position, and Vernier
settings, without span setting of Y-T graph.
In SPAN mode, the SPAN can be changed within the same range as the Y-T graph.
Set the SPAN in RANGE/SPAN display of XY digital display with ease. In addition, details can adjusted using
