Acquisition Mode
The acquisition mode is used to control how to generate waveform points from the
sample points.
Press ACQ  Acquisition in the function menu at the front panel and use to
select the desired acquisition mode (the default is normal), then press the knob to
select this mode. You can press the Acquisition softkey continuously to switch the
acquisition mode.
Normal
In this mode, the oscilloscope samples the signal at equal time interval to rebuild the
waveform. For most of the waveforms, the best display effect is generated by using
this mode.
Average
In this mode, the oscilloscope averages the waveforms from multiple samples to
reduce the random noise of the input signal and improve the vertical resolution. The
higher the number of averages is, the lower is the noise and the higher is the vertical
resolution but the slower is the response of the displayed waveform to the waveform
changes.
