information sources, namely, input channel(CH1 &
CH2), external trigger (EXT& EXT/5) and municipal
Input channel The most common trigger
information source is optional input channel
Selected one is used as channel of trigger
information source for normal operation regardless
External trigger: Such trigger information source
can be used for trigger on the third information
channel during synchronous data acquisition on
channels For instance signals from external clock
ure can be used as trigger information source.
EXT and EXT/5 trigger sources shall use external

connected to EXT TRIG interface. Signal can be
used for EXT and EXT can be used within signal
trigger level scope of -3V to +3V.
Automatic trigger: The system will acquire
waveform data automatically so as to display
scanning base line on the screen without trigger
signal input. It will convert to trigger scanning
automatically for signal synchronization when
producing trigger signal.
It is allowed to select EXT/5 for oscillograph of 5.7-
inch screen. Outer trigger shall be divided by 5 so
that trigger scope can expand to -15V to +15V for
trigger of digital storage oscillograph under large
Municipalpower: Such trigger mode can be used
to observe signal with regard to municipal power.
For instance, it can provide relationship between
lighting equipment and power supply equipment so
as to gain stable synchronization.

not acquire waveform until meeting trigger conditions
under ordinary trigger mode.Trigger scanning can be
produced when producing trigger signal.
Single trigger: User can press “operation” button
once under single trigger mode for entry and trigger
waiting for digital storage oscillograph. It will sample
and display all acquired waveform then stop after
digital storage oscillograph detects once trigger.

(or 6div).You can also rotate horizontal position to
regulate horizontal displacement of waveform and
review more pre-trigger details. You can observe
waveform in ahead of trigger by observing pre-
trigger data. For instance, burring reason can be
shown by observation and analysis on pre-trigger
data after capturing burring during circuit startup.

category of signal component conveyed to trigger
circuit. Coupling types include DC, AC, low-
frequency inhibition and high-frequency inhibition.

interval for waveform display by using such values under suc
h obtainment mode. It can also obtain and
display narrow impulse or they may be omitted for larger noise under such mode. Average mode is as
follows: Digital storage oscillograph may obtain several waveform and calculate average value then
display final waveform under this obtainment mode. Such mode can be adopted to reduce random noise.

The third example: Capture of single signal
Advantages and characteristics of digital storage
oscillograph include convenient capture of
aperiodic signals such as pulse and burring, etc.It
has to know this signal to set trigger level and
trigger edge to capture a signal signal. For
instance: Trigger level shall be set to about 2V and
set trigger edge to ascending edge trigger if pulse is
a logic signal ofTTL level. User can observe it by
automatic or ordinary trigger mode so as to
determine trigger level and trigger edge for
Operation steps are as follows:
1. To set attenuation coefficient of probe and CH1
To press MENU button in trigger control area to
display trigger setup menu
To set trigger type to edge, trigger source to CH1,
gradient to ascend, trigger mode of single mode and
trigger coupling toAC by using menu operation keys

gnal component. High- frequency inhibition is to
set a low-pass filter to filter high-frequency signal
component of more than 80kHz and allow pass
through of low-frequency signal component. It can
be set to inhibit low-frequency or high-frequency
noise respectively to gain stable trigger
