Main Feature Description two different frequencies. Mainly it uses a specific frequency to switch between two analog channels CH1 and CH2 so that the channels will generate alter trigger signals through the trigger circuitry. Trigger Mode: You can select the Auto or Normal mode to define how the oscilloscope acquires data when it does not detect a trigger condition. Auto Mode performs the acquisition freely in absence of valid trigger. It allows the generation of untriggered waveforms with the time base set to 80ms/div or slower. Normal Mode updates the displayed waveforms only when the oscilloscope detects a valid trigger condition.
Before this update, the oscilloscope still displays the old waveforms. This mode shall be used when you want to only view the effectively triggered waveforms. In this mode, the oscilloscope displays waveforms only after the first trigger. To perform a single sequence acquisition , push the SINGLE SEQ button. Trigger Coupling: Trigger Coupling determines which part of the signal will be delivered to the trigger circuit. This can help to obtain a stable display of the waveform. To use trigger coupling, push the TRIG MENU button, select an Edge or Pulse trigger, and then select a Coupling option. Trigger Position:
The horizontal position control establishes the time between the trigger position and the screen center. Slope and Level: The Slope and Level controls help to define the trigger. The Slope option determines whether the trigger point is on the rising or falling edge of a signal. To perform the trigger slope control, press the TRIG MENU button, select an Edge trigger, and use the Slope button to select rising or falling. The LEVEL button controls the trigger point is on which position of the edge.
Trigger level can be adjusted vertically Trigger slope can be rising or falling Rising Edge Falling Edge 4.3 Data Acquisition When you acquire an analog signal, the oscilloscope will convert it into a digital one. There are two kinds of acquisition: Real-time acquisition and Equivalent acquisition. The real-time acquisition has three modes: Normal, Peak Detect, and Average. The acquisition rate is affected by the setting of time base. Normal: In this acquisition mode, the oscilloscope samples the signal in evenly spaced intervals to establish the waveform. This mode accurately represents signals in most time.
However, it does not acquire rapid variations in the analog signal that may occur between two samples, which can result in aliasing and may cause narrow pulses to be missed. In such cases, you should use the Peak Detect mode to acquire data. Peak Detect: In this acquisition mode, the oscilloscope gets the maximum and minimum values of DSO1000B(V )Series HandHeld Oscilloscope User Manual 9
