4 Using the Measurement Functions
Horizontal Properties
Select the Horizontal button to configure the horizontal properties.
Sample Points - lets you specify the number of points in a scope trace. The maximum number of points
that can be specified depends on the number of scope traces that have been enabled. The minimum
number of points that can be specified is 1024.
1 trace enabled: 256 K points
2 traces enabled: 128 K points
4 traces enabled: 64 K points
8 traces enabled: 32 K points (maximum points = 256 K/# of traces)
The Power trace counts as 2 traces, since voltage and current must be measured to calculate power.
If the voltage and current traces have already been selected, the Power trace is not counted
Horizontal Offset Reference - places the reference point on the left, right, or center of the display. This
is the position of the trigger if no offset has been set. Left lets you see the waveform after the trigger
event. Center lets you see the waveform before and after the trigger event. Right lets you see the
waveform up to the trigger event.
Scope Presets
Select the Preset button to return the Scope View to the power-on display settings. The vertical offset
of each trace will be set to a different value. This is to prevent the traces from overlapping. The offset
is referenced to the horizontal center line of the grid.
