Zoom mode and Searches
Use Zoom and Searches to find events of interest on a waveform.
Searches provide a way to mark a waveform event or events for reference. You can set marks automatically with search criteria
such as particular edges, pulse widths, runts, logic states, rise/fall times, setup and hold, and bus data types.
When in Zoom mode, you can use the front-panel left and right arrow buttons to position the waveform in the Zoom Overview and
Zoom View window to the previous or next search mark on the waveform. Push and hold a front-panel navigation button to
continuously step to and show the next search mark.
You can also tap a Search badge and use its navigation buttons to position the waveform to previous or next search marks.
