HDO6000 High Definition Oscilloscope
Signal Display Grid
The grid area displays the waveform traces. It is sectioned into 10 Horizontal (Time) divisions and 8
Vertical (Voltage) divisions.
Multiple Grid Display
You can divide the display to simultaneously view multiple traces in different grids. By default, the
oscilloscope has Auto Grid enabled. This divides the display into additional grids each time a new trace is
opened, up to 16 grids for simultaneous viewing.
There are Display menu options to show all traces on a Single Grid, or to manually divide the display into
different grid sizes and formats. When you manually divide the display, zooms and measurement markers
appear on the same grid as the source channel, while math and memory traces appear in new grids until
none are available.
Manually move traces from grid to grid by activating the trace and touching the Next Grid shortcut button.
Of special note, you can also move a trace to another grid by dragging its descriptor box to the desired
grid.
Different types of traces opening in separate grids.
Adjusting Grid Brightness
You can adjust the brightness of the grid lines to make either the grid or traces more visible. Go to
Display > Display Setup and enter a new Grid Intensity percentage. The higher the number, the brighter
and bolder the grid lines.
Grid Indicators
These indicators appear over the grid to mark important points on the display. They are matched to the
color of the trace to which they apply.
Trigger Position - A small triangle along the bottom (horizontal) edge of the grid shows the time
the oscilloscope is set to trigger an acquisition. Unless Delay is set, this indicator is at the zero
(center) point of the grid. Trigger Delay is shown at the top right of the Timebase descriptor box.
