Timeout Trigger
In Timeout trigger, the oscilloscope triggers when the time interval (â–³T) (the time
from when the rising edge (or falling edge) of the input signal passes through the
trigger level to the time from when the neighboring falling edge (or rising edge)
passes through the trigger level) is greater than the preset timeout value, as shown
in the figure below.
