23. XY Format
This format is only applicable to Channel 1 and Channel 2. After the XY display format is selected, Channel 1
is displayed in the horizontal axis and Channel 2 in the vertical axis; the oscilloscope is set in the un-triggered
sample mode: the data are displayed as bright spots.
Note:
* The XY display is made with the same settings as the normal measurement mode, therefore, the starting
position of the XY display with the starting position of CHA & CHB waveforms changes.
* To the starting position of the XY display to put in the center of the image, adjust the waveforms prior to
activation of the XY format to the zero line.
* The display is limited 10 divisions in the XY format to 10 x.
The operations of all control knobs are as follows:
* The Vertical VOLTS/DIV and the VERTICAL POSITION knobs of Channel 1 are used to set the horizontal
scale and position.
* The Vertical VOLTS/DIV and the VERTICAL POSITION knobs of Channel 2 are used to set the vertical
scale and position continuously.
The following functions can not work in the XY Format:
* Reference or digital wave form
* Cursor
* Time base control
* Trigger control
* FFT
Operation steps:
1. Press the Display button and call out the Display Set Menu.
