The trigger readout shows that the oscilloscope is triggering on channel 1
(Ch1) on a rising edge, and that the trigger level is about 200–300 mV.
The time base readout shows that the main time base is set to a horizontal
scale of 500 ms/div.
The channel readout indicates that channel 1 (Ch1) is displayed with DC
coupling. (In AC coupling, ~ appears after the volts/div readout.) The
oscilloscope always displays channel 1 at reset.
