Horizontal Position-Scale control window (Delay mode)
From the Horiz /Acq menu, select Position/Scale.
Overview. Use the Horizontal Position/Scale control window to set the horizontal delay and the horizontal scale of the displayed
waveforms when the horizontal delay is on.
To use.
â–
When horizontal delay is off, the horizontal position control moves the trigger point within the acquired waveform. The
horizontal scale control expands or contracts the waveform around the trigger point.
â–
When horizontal delay is on, you can delay the acquisition relative to the trigger event.
For more information on horizontal delay, see Horizontal Position/Scale Control Window: Horiz Delay On.

Set the horizontal position
From the Horiz /Acq menu, select Position/Scale to open the Horizontal Position/Scale control window.
Overview. The horizontal position control moves the trigger point within the acquired waveform.
To use.
â–
Click in the Position entry box and use the multipurpose knob or keypad to change the setting.
Behavior. You can select the amount of data that appears before and after the trigger event. To acquire waveforms leading up to
the trigger event, set the horizontal position control to the maximum time setting. To acquire waveforms after the trigger event,
set the horizontal position control to the minimum time setting.
The horizontal reference point is shown as a small inverted triangle.
TIP. Use the dedicated front-panel Position knob to change the horizontal position.
