the software and firmware.
Number of Samples
This button allows you to set the maximum number of samples that will be captured
by each channel. The sampling rate of current time base can be adjusted by
changing the number of samples. Review the sampling interval, sampling rate, and
sample size in the Parameter and Help sheet.
Tap the minus or plus icon to adjust the number of samples.
Auto Scale
Use the Auto Scale button to enable the device to analyze a signal of an enabled
channel and determine the appropriate amplitude range to optimize the display of
signal. In auto scale setting, the time base is only valid for periodic signals.
1.1.5.2 Main View Section
Up to four traces, along with digital readouts of current signal values, signal status
and triggering conditions, can be displayed simultaneously on the main view section
screen.
Each trace has two control features, X-axis and Y-axis, which enable you to adjust
the oscilloscope settings to suit the particular test measurement. If multiple traces
are displayed at the same time, the Y-axis for each trace is adjusted separately
while the X-axis is the same for all traces.
 Y-axis – the voltage level is recorded on the vertical. It displays on the left side of
the screen.
 X-axis – time is presented on the horizontal line. It is shown along the bottom of
the screen.
Measurement Overrange Indicator
When the signal voltage exceeds the measurement input range, a red overrange
indicator with the message “overrange” is displayed in the top left corner of the
screen displays. Exceeding the common-mode input range may result in inaccurate
measurements and can lead to severe signal distortion.
