The Delayed Timebase (DEL’DTB) has two basic

timebase.
• To permit more accurate timing measurements.

OFF keys.

as indicated.
DELAYED TIMEBASE MainTB and Del’dTB
- Press the Delayed Timebase DTB key to enter
the DELAYED TIMEBASE menu.

the Delayed Timebase.
The main timebase trace and delayed timebase
trace are displayed simultaneously.
The upper trace is the Main Timebase trace. The Main Timebase trace shows an
intensified portion. It may be necessary to adjust the trace intensity with the
TRACE INTENSITY control to the left of the screen.
The lower trace is the Delayed Timebase trace. This represents the intensified
part of the upper trace.
Since all primary functions have dedicated keys and controls on the front panel,
the menu can now be turned off.
- Press the TEXT OFF button to turn off the menu.
