Independent versus shared window
The instrument applies the same horizontal acquisition window to all channels from which it acquires data. Unlike the vertical
acquisition window that you size and offset independently for each channel, the same time/div, resolution (record length), and
horizontal position (from the same trigger point) apply to all channels simultaneously.
One trigger, from a single trigger source, will locate a common horizontal acquisition window for all active channels, which you
can shift in parallel by setting the horizontal position control.

Incompatible acquisition features
The following table shows which acquisition features and modes are incompatible with other features or modes:
Incompatible with Control/Feature Explanation
Reference Waveforms (Ref 1– 4) Voltage Offset Offset is an acquisition control, not a
display control
Single shot acquisition Average Acquisitions continue until the specified
number of waveforms have been
acquired and averaged
Single shot acquisition Envelope Acquisitions continue until the specified
number of waveforms have been
acquired for the enveloped waveform
Measurements Roll Measurements are not available until you
stop acquisitions
Envelope, Average, or WfmDB acquisition
modes
Roll Using these acquisition modes will turn
Roll mode off
