Both positive and negative going pulses

2.5.4 Width Trigger
The width trigger compares the measured pulse width (duration of a pulse) with a given
time limit. It detects pulses with an exact pulse width, pulses shorter or longer than a
given time, as well as pulses inside or outside the allowable time range. The pulse
width is measured at the trigger level.
Using the width trigger, you can define the pulse width more precisely than with the
glitch trigger. However, using the range settings "Shorter" and "Longer", you can also
trigger on glitches.
