Auto-magnify
As you a
djust the horizontal scale control to faster time/division settings, the MDO3000 Series automatically increases the
sample rate to keep acquiring the same record length in the shorter period of time. Eventually though, the MDO3000 S eries
hits its maximum sample rate. Once the instrument is at its fastest sample rate, further changes to faster timebase s ettings
cause t
he oscilloscope to operate in Auto-magnify mode, where the oscilloscope shows the faster desired time/division
setting and continues to acquire the desired record length. The result is that the oscilloscope cannot show all of the acquired
points within the desired time/division setting.
Instead, the oscilloscope shows you only a portion of the entire record in the time-domain graticule. This feature provides you
with a
way to magnify a portion of the record without having to use the smaller zoom screen display. This feature gives you
the maximum benefit of the sample rate / record length c ombination in your oscilloscope. With Auto-magnify, you have
access to the full record length at the maximum sample rate.
NOTE
. Auto-magnify only comes on when the zoom feature is turned off.
